And that concludes Week 1! I’ve managed to write 4800 words, completing the story (though it’s probably terrible), and I still have a day left. This is great because I don’t anticipate having much time on Saturday for writing.

The story is a “mundane police detective stumbled into a vampire power struggle and somehow manages to emerge on top” kind of story. It’s a clichéd plot, but I’m content with how I addressed some of the inherent challenges.

There’s no time to rest on my accomplishments, though. Sunday is just around the corner, and my goal is to have a fully outlined plan for my next story by the end of the day.

Maybe it’s the exhilaration of the write-a-thon, but I’m actually enjoying the challenge of pushing myself to do this.

A reminder, if you want to cheer me on and celebrate these little accomplishments, there’s still time to contribute to my fundraiser!
