How I did it: I hate asking for help, but I must. I will. I am still trying to ask for help. Especially when I go away in a couple of weeks. I hate needing help. But we are not islands and given my crazy, hectic family. Well, we are in desperate need. Read how I did it…
How I did it: http://mbcoudal.wordpress.com/I have 7 rules to live by...This is #4... Cultivate a Secret Garden I'd rather not say too much. After all, it is a secret. But you can plant your own secret garden -- a hobby, a small indulgence, a pleasure, a journal. Sometimes I feel my life is so public -- everyone knows everything. I give so much to so many. This is my one little private thing. Read how I did it…
I think that’s the right word count; although I might actually be down 1,000 because I can’t remember if I updated the word count yesterday morning. But it’s all about quantity NOT quality.

I am in the home stretch. Have to tie up some plot loose ends and have to kill off a character. Have to add one more big obstacle. Hmmm. I just have to keep writing.
I’m proud of me!
