Struggling on

Well I didn't do very well last night, because I was so tired I actually starting falling asleep at my keyboard. I had intended to write until 5am, but I gave up at 4am with just 1012. That brought the total to 18,037.

Today I had hoped to try and make up all the shortfall. Yeah, right. I managed to do 2450 though, which is just over target. I really understand now why they nag you to write at least 2,000 a day at the start. As soon as you lose pace, it's a disaster. The missing words just hang over you like the dark axe of doom. My total is 20,987. It should be 24,000. That's one hell of a lot of catch up to do. Plus I'm losing inspiration and getting more and more tired. And it's showing in my prose, which is so tortured and turgid I can't even bring myself to post any here.
