Laundry and Writing

I spent most of the day at my daughter's house doing laundry. With three loads of laundry, it took quite a while to do. I also plotted the new story points so I would know which direction New Horizons is going. From what I plotted, it should be an interesting book.
At the moment I have over a thousand words to write to be on track for today's word quota. Hopefully I can achieve that in the next hour, and then I will be here to interact with you.
I hope your day has been a good one. Thanks for reading.

Ugh! I couldn't sit in a car for six hours. I would go insane. I hope you were able to get out and stretch every so often.
Thank you. This one will be a while in coming. This is my NaNo project. When November is over, unless the juices are flowing like they are now, I will get started on publishing Thread of Evidence and working on Uncertain Future.

It sounds like you had quite the busy day..I think it is cool you are doing all this writing. Your novels have been well reviewed on Amazon.

I used to, but with this move, I can't have one in my apartment. My old ones were history anyway. Thank you.

That's no problem. I'm currently over 6000 in three days and today isn't over yet.

All those chores always have to be done- even now I haven't folded mine from the drier yet- but then it's more fun to myLot! ha!

@MarymargII I did good. I got it put away last night. I only waited two days this time. I've had weeks where I didn't put them away until I needed to do laundry.

@just4him Yep the folding is the tough part-ha! And the putting away is a close second.

I hope the words flow for you. I used to bang out product reviews that were well over 1000 words so I guess I could probably do this writing challenge if I had any talent in fiction writing.
I would hate having to haul my laundry anywhere to wash/dry it. I hate having to go downstairs to the basement to do it. The best situation ever was when I rented a room in a coworker's house and the washer and dryer were on the second floor with the bedrooms. That was AMAZING!

Is that another book you are writing then?
I have several ideas in mind but they are on the backburner.
Laundry is often a good thing to do as you think of other things that you might not normally think of.
A thousand words is a lot to write so good luck.

@just4him
Ten thousand words?
Those are a huge amount of words.
In just four days and it takes me all my time to write on here sometimes.

@lovinangelsinstead21 I know, it can be challenging to write a blog post. Yes, 10,000 words. It was no problem getting to that number.

I'm glad you've had a good day and have made progress on your new book... Laundry is one of the few household jobs that I like doing...
