@kate-flournoy and @daeus I got lots done. I’m not sure how many words exactly as I have been all over the place in my story but I got it all sorted out. I had some major problems in it. Time was the main issue, but that’s all done. *Very happy*
April 27, 2016 at 9:08 pm #11984@bluejay yay!!!!!!!
April 27, 2016 at 9:09 pm #11986@bluejay and @kate-flournoy I had a fantastic time. I actually surpassed my goal and got 786 words written. I’m going to try to set myself word count goals more ofter. You know, if I could write that much just twice a day, I could have a full-length novel written in less than three months. I also created this guy who’s chief characteristic is his droopiness which is symbolized by his very droopy hat.

April 27, 2016 at 9:12 pm #11988Ooh wow @Daeus three months, lucky… how long is ‘full-length’ for you?
XD he sounds fun… 🙂 What’s his name? Or does he have a name yet?
April 27, 2016 at 9:14 pm #11991@kate-flournoy Well the key word is “if”. I don’t normally write that many words a day though I’m sure I could if I set myself more goals. I believe a full-length novel is defined as about 90,000 words, though I might be wrong.

April 27, 2016 at 9:14 pm #11992@daeus Congrats. That’s a great idea. Maybe I should do that too…
@kate-flournoy I know, I’m so relieved to have solved it. Head back to the topic at the missing cats and tell me if my idea would work. (and you too @daeus)April 27, 2016 at 9:16 pm #11993@kate-flournoy Oh, the droopy guy. Yeah, he doesn’t have a name though he is referred to as the man with the droopy hat or just the droopy man. He’s actually a very minor character with only this one scene. I guess he’s actually a foil character too.

April 27, 2016 at 9:16 pm #11994about 90,000 words,
*groans* Oh, the bliss of dealing with such a small word-count! I know, I know, it’s my fault… *sniff* How I would love to write something that short, though! 😛
April 27, 2016 at 9:17 pm #11995He does sound quite fun, @Daeus. I love it when nameless minor characters are identified by their specific traits. 🙂
April 28, 2016 at 10:06 am #12019*Yodels to get people’s attention* Anybody up for a writing challenge? I’m aiming till 11:30. Goal of 700 words. Tag me if you’re in.

April 28, 2016 at 1:41 pm #12033@bluejay Unfortunately something came up and I won’t be able to write tonight. If anybody wants to do a writing match anytime in the afternoon though (my afternoon), I’ll join you.
