I’ve got close to 700 words written for today, so I definitely hit my daily goal of 500 words (hoping to up that to 1000 at some point, but baby steps are needed in the beginning 
). Even though this part technically isn’t continuing on, it is a new chapter that comes earlier in the book (and the one that’s next for critique). I may end up writing a little more today. I’m hoping to get some done before I have to take my dog to his training class tonight
I think I would’ve had well over 1K today if it was a chapter that wasn’t up for critique yet. I’ve been overanalyzing the scene too much. Oh well; it’s going to need a lot of work (like every chapter of mine does) but at least it’ll be done and posted. And, since this is looking like it will be a relatively short chapter (probably only around 1500-2000 words), I won’t have to agonize during the session since it will be critiqued rather quickly.
That’s all for today; just wanted to update on the progression like I promised I would.
Anyone else do so much needed writing today?

Ack. No. I need to write but I’ve had this monster headache all day and now that the kiddos are in bed, all I can think about is zoning in front of House and eating Reeses.
Congrats on the word count! Awesome.
Your off to a good start, wahoo! Keep up the good work.
I’m trying to wrap up a little over 1k words to meet my writing goal before March ends. I think I’ll make it.
Very well done! always nice to start fresh with some success I think
I’ve been getting a little writing done throughout the day and will definitely hit 500, but probably not a lot more. With the lack of hands free time I’m getting at the moment its a miracle I’m even getting 500!
Congrats! Once you’ve made writing every day a habit and the story starts flowing, you’ll find yourself missing it whenever you’re away.
Happy writing!
Hey Dara,
Just sending you more encouragement.
As for me- still revising. Slowly but diligently.
