Oops, I got distracted by bookshop stuff (real life, not fiction, alas) and forgot to check in for Day 6 -- but I wrote some alibi sentences, some notes for essay stuff, and worked on the nonfiction project. All in dribs and drabs.
But today I wrote over a thousand words on one of the essays -- about food! Next thing I'll do is cut it back to about 800. Heh. Or more likely, add more words and split it in two. Or three.
I'm glad writing by hand works for you so well. I do it sometimes, but mostly for lists or "clustering" (which I've talked about before -- a sort of free-writing using free-form diagrams). Maybe I should try it more often -- my eyes could use a break from the computer screen!
