A game of inches

pjthompsonToday I only managed 432 words on my novel, Venus In Transit. But seeing as how I've only managed 1590 new words since Christmas, I'm actually pleased with that—in a Please-Universe-Don't-Hit-Me-Again kind of way.
Only tomorrow knows if I can sustain this blistering pace, but I'll be happy if I can sustain any ol' pace at all, thank you very much. It's been a rough winter, writing-wise, but when I look around me at the truly rough times other people have been going through, artistic whining didn't seem particularly relevant or important. In the larger scheme of things, it truly isn't.
But writing is my thing that I must do. And so I must do it. Whining is optional and extremely unproductive, so I'll try to keep that to a minimum.
