The plan is coming together.

I made a plan today to make 4000 words.

1. Get up in the morning, go to coffee shop.
2. Drink coffee while writing 1000 words.
3. Take break on internets.
4. Write 1000 words.
5. Leave coffee shop, eat lunch, watch TV, rake leaves, clean up squalid hellhole house.
6. Go to different coffee shop.
7. Repeat steps 2-4.

I am in between steps 4 and 5, so well on my way. I will repeat this plan tomorrow, for an 8000 word weekend. Or die trying. The key so far was to cut off step 3, because that could have gone on too long. The internets will still be there when you're done with step 4.

Just like last year, my novel is shaping up to be way longer than 50k.
