Finished chapter 17; 33,391 word count
Writers Tip: Celebrate! Writing can be lonesome, discouraging, frustrating, and non-profitable, to name just a few of the negatives that authors put up with. It is important to celebrate, enjoy each turn of phrase that is particularly appropos. Celebrate the end of a chapter. Some days you may have to celebrate the end of a paragraph. Celebrate when you character displays amazing insight, fortitude, intelliect, or discernment. Celebrate rejection letters that are from a real person, not just a copied check list that indicates your work does not fit their current needs.
Today I am celebrating being one-third done. I passed the 33,333 word in chapter 17.
Hurray!

Mrs. Paul is a fantasy author and grandma. This blog is something like a daily journal. She will list the word count and chapter number of what she is working on and will post one writer's tip that she actually used during her day of writing.

Congrats! How are you celebrating? I always drink soda out of a wine glass (often for breakfast) when I want to celebrate.
