Draw yourself up a matrix - a realistic one that takes into account busy days and not so busy days and set yourself a target for that day. If you do more words than your target, just 'bank' them for when something crops up.<br /><br />I find that 3,500 words a day is my maximum when I'm working which equates to about four hours total writing/editing time.<br /><br />Keep going Denise. The worst bit for me was between about 40k and 60k, then it was all downhill to the glorious end.Annieyehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13466245069641820781noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-261284053953718962.post-24262889641428712902009-05-05T14:51:00.000+01:002009-05-05T14:51:00.000+01:00Life Interruptus always picks its moments doesn't ...Life Interruptus always picks its moments doesn't it.<br /><br />Glad bunny is ok. Must have been worrying for you, especially on a Saturday (not to mention expensive).<br /><br />I'm impressed you can do 1k in your lunch hour. I think you're going to reach this deadline no problem. You're focussed and achieving tons. So just a few minutes each day planning your (fab) trip ok:-)Lane Mathiashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08147122748453850264noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-261284053953718962.post-89093842437630613872009-05-05T13:29:00.000+01:002009-05-05T13:29:00.000+01:00I know what you mean!

I'm trying to manage about 1000 words a day to meet my deadline, but it's surprising how much time gets eaten up doing other things.<br /><br />Glad bunny's okay (£140 though!!!) and good luck planning your holiday - you might have to ration yourself to ten minutes for that :o)Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05986874444030474719noreply@blogger.com
