Updates from the novel-writing front: Day 6

[cicer]

10031 / 50000 words. 20% done!

Lordy. Writing today's installment was like pulling teeth. I think I'm going to throw in some random action tomorrow to punch things up. I'm hitting a rather boring spot at the novel, but as soon as I churn out the next couple thousand words, things will get good again. Secrets will be revealed! A villain will appear! Somebody will kick the bucket! It will all be very exciting. Now if only I can get through the next bit...

Doesn't that suck? No matter how tightly you try and plan your story, you always end up with one or two of those bits - the ones where you just have to create a sense of time passing, or summarise book-work or research or something far too dull to write out in length. There's no just avoiding them!

Yay! Go you!

I know what you mean since I always seem to hit those boring spots myself. Just think of the fun you'll have as soon as you get past them!
