I have participated in the Queensland Writer's Centre Rabbit Hole writing event three times now. I am not sure where the number 2 came from, but I am happy to have an extra memory that no one else does. Some people might call that crazy, but I am sure there is a reason for it.
Today was the start of the event. It is primarily to help writers write. There are 3 days to complete 30,000 words or "THE END", whichever comes first. In both my previous attempts at the Rabbit Hole, I have failed to complete this challenge, so I am hoping this will be my first time to make the grade.
It is from 6 to 8pm Friday night, and 10am to 8pm both Saturday and Sunday. For the first two hours, I was able to generate 2468 words on chapter 6 of the Battle of Korunai. To be honest, I was a little disappointed by this, however, I have generated a heap of detail on the content specifications for the next four chapters.
Some of the earlier chapters have been in the vicinity of 5000-6000 words when scrubbed and edited properly, so it is possible for me to write the next three chapters if I can get into the zone. Additionally, I want to get the next installment of the Air, Steel & Soul blog completed.
Clearly, it is not like I have a lack of things to write.
So, tomorrow we begin again at 10am for the Rabbit Hole. I am really hoping to make the 20,000 word mark tomorrow if I can.
