"We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act, but a habit."
Aristotle

Day 7 went well, I wrote over 2,300 words, so I surpassed my personal wordcount goal of 1775.  My total is 13,395 and I am so excited about it.  I love the idea of writing a fat first draft, full of ideas and also holes, full of mistakes and also beauty, full of promise.  I am still excited about this project and now we're into Week 2.  I couldn't ask for more.

I'm also discovering what I need to work on in my fiction writing - dialogue and setting/place.  That's encouraging because now I know what I need to do - study other writers I admire, see how they do it.  There are so many teachers in this world and I am so willing and ready to learn.
