More Marathon Success!

I did it! I wrote 10,000 words this weekend! I'm so happy I reached my goal!

I reached 10K at the end of chapter 16 (these are short young-child type chapters)... then decided to continue with the story. By the end of chapter 17 the story was finished so I got a double reward... not only did I finish my marathon, I completed a new manuscript that I didn't have any knowledge of on Saturday morning. It was one of those stories that just had to be written though. I could feel it emerging as if propelled by its own power.

This is a fantasy for children (girl protagonist) with a strong religious theme (interfaith: Christian and Pagan). It was a great conflict for a child character to go through and something that's a contemporary problem many children face... except for the fantasy part, that is.

My total word count: 10,664.
