Ernest Hemingway Writing Day

First off, there's a lot of wisdom is this advice from the Old Man: http://www.copyblogger.com/ernest-hemingway-top-5-tips-for-writing-well

[livejournal.com profile] insatia dragged me to Capital Hill today for her beading class she is teaching my coworkers. I decided I was going to have an Ernest Hemingway writing day, minus the smoking.

I sat down at Charlies and had a delicious Mojito and got started.

After about an hour or so, the wait staff started getting anxious and so I walked down Broadway and saddled up at Bauhaus.

My basic plan was to write as fast as I could for an hour and then switch subjects.

The word talley:

Until the Stars Grow Cold 1,200 words

Dylan and the Dreamlands 1,300 words

A Night at Charlies 800 words

I am tired. I'm now enjoying a hot coca. [livejournal.com profile] insatia will be very happy that I'm actually drinking something at a cafe.
