All I really want to do is write in my novel

It’s true.  Unfortunately, the universe is conspiring against me.  The homework alert level has been raised to orange and a half.  Fortunately, it should die down by the weekend.

I’m still sticking by the 500 words per day goal that I had before.  I just decided to modify it so that if I write more than 500 words on a particular day, it will count for missed words from the day before.  I’ve noticed that when I sit down to write 500 words, I usually write 1,000.  Since, with papers and tests throwing things out of whack, I can’t always make 500 words each individual day, at least I can write 500 words FOR every day.  I’ll probably have some time to catch up on Wednesday.
