The Great Challenge - Week 19

I failed to update y'all about The Great Challenge with Dean last week.

Well, I succeeded. I also succeeded this week. Or...last week. Whatever. Regardless, it's 19 weeks down, and 19 stories written.

Although I will say this last one probably sucks. I went through the whole week not wanted to do a damn thing about writing. I actively avoided it, until Sunday afternoon. Then the power of the challenge and the streak kicked in, and I couldn't not write something, at least.

For all I know, that could mean the story's awesome. Honestly dunno. Doesn't matter though, because the story's written and I've moved on to Week 20. Got the next story started, and I know where it's going. So that's good.

I also got some more good writing stuff done this week. We'll talk about that in another post.

Here's the tally of challenge stories so far.

1. Red Orchid - Romance - 3,800 words
2. Debts And Obligations - Sword and Sorcery - 14,200 words
3. Naughty And Nice - Modern Fantasy - 4,800 words
4. Popper's - Mystery - 4,100 words

6. Fences And Neighbors - Post-Apocalyptic - 4,800 words
7. Give A Dog A Bone - Doggy Mystery - 3,200 words
