People ask me what I'm up to. I tell them I'm working on a novel.

Same same
24 pages and 5 note cards today. In terms of page numbers, I'm now slightly over 1/2 way through in slightly over 2 weeks. Feb. 25 remains a very reasonable deadline for this draft.
I'm Robert McGuire, a freelance writer, college writing teacher and frequent traveler working on his first, second and third books.
This blog is inspired by Journal of Novel, the daily diary that John Steinbeck kept while writing East of Eden in which he talked to himself about technical problems in his draft, personal family dramas that were affecting his writing and his daily page count. I talk to myself about a similar scope of issues here.
