You keep your deleted stuff?
Wow.
:-)

But yay new words!
I like publishing my goals. It keeps me accountable! My current goal is to read the twilight series over the Christmas break.

I rarely use my deleted stuff though, but if I didn't keep it, I don't think I could delete it so easily.

Have fun reading Twilight. I read the first book in about a day. Couldn't get into the other. My daughters loved them all, though. And thought the movie was just OK.

Keep it up, Carol. I'll be watching that word count.

When I look at all ny drafts of the Dreaded Trilogy I realise I must've written at least 800,000ww. Like you, I never throw out old drafts, just in case I want to retrieve an idea - and I often do!

[carolryles]

800,000. that's a lot of words. Wow I'm impressed.

[satimaflavell]

If only they were the *right* 800,000ww I'd have the damned thing finished by now!

[carolryles]

I know that feeling. Why are the wrong words easier to find than the right ones? That's why my delete file is so big, I reckon.

Heh! Thanks. Though the Christmas excuse is making the word count look sick this week. I probably should have waited till after Christmas to do this. :)
