Prologue

Hello world!

My name is Amy, and I am writing this blog in a (probably futile) attempt to keep myself on track whilst writing my latest story. The self-explanatory title of this blog (which I am, nevertheless, going to explain) refers to my self-imposed goal of writing an average of 500 words per day for an entire year. This would give me a total of 182,500 words at the end of a year; in other words, a decent beginning. Hopefully I'll be able to do more than that!

So, in an effort to keep you abreast and apprised, I am writing a story (can I call it a novel yet?) about a somewhat dystopian society (what, me? Normally I'm so peppy and chipper...go figure). I am currently 6,595 words in, and am hoping to reach 7,000 by the end of the day. Considering it's 1.21 on a Friday afternoon, and I'm working, and I have a headache, and I'm meeting up with some old Oxford buds tonight for drinks and fun and delicious ice cream...

...I seem to have gotten somewhat lost here. Where was I? Oh yes, excuses. Weak.

7k is my goal, and I must bustle off now in pursuit of it! Inspiratione fugit, persequar!
