Check it out! My third post, and I'm still on schedule.
I'll be adding another category to the things I'm counting: Dickens Project Word Count. I'm enrolled in a special seminar on the late works of Charles Dickens this year, and I have to produce "a substantial piece of written work." Holding my breath, with fingers crossed, half aghast at my own temerity, I asked my professor whether, instead of researching an article, I could write a Dickens themed middle grade novel. And he said yes! I probably won't finish the whole thing this semester, but I'm hoping for a minimum of 25,000 words, or three out of my seven planned sections.
Enough chatting! On with the counting!
Pounds to lose to next reward sticker: 1
Fantasy novel word count: 30,115
Dickens project word count: 1,785
WOO HOO! That is great! Are you working on both projects at the same time? As for WW--any great or favorite recipes or food items that you have found that you enjoy and are also low on points? That's always the hard part. CONGRATULATIONS ON ALL!
