Daily Word Count: (ugh) 200 today, 6.2k total (out of a likely 40-50k)
Inspirations: That Hideous Strength, C.S. Lewis.
The good:
"Because the hero is righteous, virtuous; because he rides a white horse and carries a red banner – the villain has to wear a black coat and eat children. That's just how the story goes. When the hero touches a star the villain touches a toad. Then, in the end, the hero sticks a sword in the villain's gut and kisses the princess. Bloody, happy ever after, eh?"
Bad writing skill that needs to go away: I feel like my characters aren't acting naturally. I shouldn't use so many vague fluff words - I need to be more concrete with my metaphors.

Sloooooow writing today. 200 words? 'Nuff said. Got a late start and not much time to write tonight. Here's hoping tomorrow is more productive.
Current mood:
Sleepy
