Writing update

[janradder]

I passed the 200 page mark of my manuscript tonight (a little over 70,000 words).  And I'm feeling pretty stoked about it.  I've been spending the past couple of days writing about Psychos in Love, the movie I worked on when I was fifteen.  In writing this I am finding myself amazed at how much time can really change as you get older.  I'm thinking back to these sections of my youth that seemed to take so long when they were happening and I'm realizing, in writing them, that they only lasted a month or two and I have to stop and think about that to make sure I'm right because even my memory of the events seem like they lasted longer than that.  My grandparents tell me that time moves even faster for them.  I seriously can't imagine that.

You're such a slacker. Why ONLY 70,000? Wake me when you reach 100,000. Then maybe I'll be impressed.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, I know, it's kind of pathetic.
