58% water


I calculate that's what I am. It's average for a woman my age. I don't cry much, except on days when I do, and hardly sweat. I gave up drinking eight litres a day when I started hearing myself slosh.

Forcing myself to write when I wasn't in the mood was interesting. I left myself in the hands of my characters and they took me to all sorts of unexpected places. So, who knows? This might have been a great writing day.

Hi Sarah,

2,000 words in a day is extremely impressive. I haven't written 2,000 words in a day for a long time. I used to be able to, but now I'm finding the actual writing harder and harder. If I can manage 500 I feel satisfied. Anything above that is a bonus.

Hi Roger, thanks for dropping in, great to see you here. I suspect 500 would be a happier target for me too, once I have "the deal" under my belt. If indeed I ever do. At the moment, I'm driven by the need to crack that tremendous milestone. Not that I will exactly relax when I've done it, I'm sure.

And I meant to say - congrats on the US launch of AVL!
