The output meme

From rolanni

I've altered some categories so that I'd have something to post. Rather humbling to see others' production over the course of the year, but oh the hell well:

In 2005:

Novel words written:
Endgame: 93,000

Short story words written: 0
Notes, outline, and synopsis words written: less than 93,000, but more than 10,000
Blog words written: Probably too many


New stories written: 0
Existing stories revised: 0
Short story submissions sent: 0
Responses received: n/a
Acceptances: n/a
Rejections: n/a
Short stories commissioned: 1
Short stories published: 0

Major award nominations: 0
Minor award nominations: 0


Novel editing hours: I edit as I write, so there's a tangle there. Plus, am I supposed to start, like, keeping a log book or something?
Novels submitted: 0
Novels awaiting response: 0
Synopses begun: 2. 5, if you break it down by individual books, as we're talking one fantasy trilogy and one dark fantasy that's up to two books and may go longer.
Synopses evaluated by agent: 1 (or 3). This is the fantasy set.

Hmmmm

Borrowed from wicked_wish

You know, in a Yoda-like way this is an apt description of my 'Net addiction quandary.

Weaving and weighing

Not sure if I will make my five pages tonight. The chapter is almost complete--I wrote dialogue at a pretty rapid clip, which is why I made my 5 two nights ago--but it's the equivalent of pieces of cloth cut from a pattern. They're arranged atop the table in the proper positions, but they need to be sewn together and there are dangly threads here and there. What I'm trying to do now is sew them together. Flat-fell seams. Just enough detail. Hand-worked buttonholes.

I have the right words leading up to the close, at least. I had to pause to wipe my eyes as I typed.
