Something that has occurred to me over time is the need to stay comfortable during long writing sessions. I used to have issues with back pain, which I eventually realized was due to my chair. I finally got a really good chair for sitting at my desk for long periods. But, I also realized that another form of discomfort comes from staring at the monitor too long. So I use a timer to force my self to take breaks every 45 minutes.
Do you do anything like this?
So, how’s your progress going? Tomorrow will mark the start of the last full week of the competition. Are you making any adjustments to your goals? Or are you thinking you are still writing to target?

Well, today I’ve officially crossed the 50K mark…but I’m not done. There are two chapters for me to finish, so I’ll keep going for a few more days until I have the book done. Then I’ll actually set it aside for a few weeks, and then start from scratch, using this manuscript as an outline.
