Reading and Writing

Yesterday’s word count: 1,277 words (all journal; I did research for one of my projects, though).

Not going to get much if any writing done this evening; we went car shopping.  I’ll be buying a new car in March, and we’re researching the hybrids.  Didn’t get home until late.  I’ll read more this evening, but I can’t see my way to creative writing in the time that’s left before bed.

I did have an idea this morning for a science fiction story.  Not sure of the length for the story, and I have some thinking to do if I’m going to flesh out the concept.  But it was exciting to have a creative thought (I know, as an aspiring writer, I should already have lots of ideas)..  Tomorrow is family movie night, so it’s going to be the weekend before I can really explore the idea to see if there’s a viable story in it for me.

I’m writing this post in the WordPress app on my iPad Pro.  I’ve switched from the in-app editor to the site administration view, and it’s nice: I get the word count here.  I’d like to count these words among my daily writing, so now I’ll be able to do that without too much difficulty.

Still putting it together.
