Day 19.

It is the second to last Monday of this month, and I can not believe it. It has truly been an intense month. I feel like I'm very close to the tipping point - that wonderful point where your novel begins to gain momentum down the hill and speed up until it careens through the finish line. Today was a day of writing of hard choices and cliffhangers. Ah, noveling...

I'm feeling great about the writing experience and learning more about myself through it as I figure out what I'm going to do for ends meat. I think I'm going to get a master's degree and then teach and write on the side until I can write full time.

Today's word count stands at 31,671. Intense, huh?
