I'm working on a new book, so it's time to resurrect the accountability posts! I #amwriting - this week I wrote on 6 days out of 7 (so almost #writeeveryday), for a total of 2565 words (which is comfortably more than #200wordsaday). All of them were set on-board a... spaceship!

Guys! I think I've figured out what GRR Martin's problem is! His kitchen drain probably keeps blocking so he needs to go and clear it and that's why he can't finish The Winds Of Winter. I did write 406 words today, but I was aiming for more. Stupid drain. #amwriting #writeeveryday #200wordsaday
