PerExWriMo and Silly Stuff

So far I've only done two days worth of my PerExWriMo (where I'm devoting 2 hours of writing every non-work day). My word count is at 4363. Now that might not seem much compared to you NaNoWriMoers (those who are on track, anyway), but I'm aiming at a more personal goal, and that's far more than I've ever written before on a PerExWriMo.

Right now I'm feeling good about dedicating a block of writing time and may continue it even after November ends. We'll see if that feeling lasts when I run out of the first blush of excitement for the story I'm working on and get into a block where I can't think of anything to write. I'm not doing a novel, either, which helps some. I have the attention span of a gnat sometimes, so I'm flitting back and forth between a number of projects that interest me. Most of the writing (over 3k words) is on a short story I just started and have a good grasp on, with some of the rest split between a few older projects.

And just for fun...
