A goal to write one million words in a single year may seem like a massive task. Here is one writer's attempt to do just that.

DAY ONE

So my chronic procrastination struck me again today, and I didn't even start writing until ten PM. Not a good thing.

Looking at the list of novels I want to complete, I chose to start on one called "The Attic". In one sentence, it's about this family who discovers certain magical objects in their attic that transport them to the world of fairy tales, upon which they have to find each other and find their way back home.

I can already see that the quality of writing that I wrote today is not the best, so it will take a lot of editing to fix it up. It's mostly because of a lack of motivation on my part, so I'm forcing myself to write it. Again, not a good thing.

And, although my word goal for the day was 2740, I only managed to write 1989 words. I'll have to write some extra tomorrow. Hopefully I'll be more motivated in the morning.
