The words I do have are crap and I think I’ve written one chapter three different ways and I’m still not happy with it. What’s more is that I haven’t even introduced the beginning of my main plot line yet and I’m on chapter 7! I know after the first draft I can go back and add and subtract all these things…but WTF?!
August is so not my month. Hopefully September will bring happier word count my way.

But despite all my word count woes, I’m bringing you a fabulous new word to ponder. Who knows, maybe it’ll kick my muse in the a**.
