Time Spent:  45 minutes (10:45am – 11:30am)

Notes: And…scene done! Amazing what you can accomplish under pressure, isn’t it?

Back to the NaNo draft!

Time Spent:  45 minutes (3:00pm – 3:45pm)

Notes: Oh yeah. We’re cruisin’ now. Another scene done, the first episode complete and the second started.

Time Spent:  45 minutes (4:30pm – 5:15pm)

Notes: And that’s another scene done…and I’m done for the day. Not too bad, if I do say so myself. And a good scene too. At the risk of jinxing myself, I still really like how this is going…
