I love "On Writing." In fact, I actually have a whole section of my bookcase dedicated to King's works.

Thank you for the tip, you're not condescending or snarky. While I do agree that 600 words isn't a lot, I'm not really one to sit for long periods of time and focus on one thing.

When I first started the novel, I decided on 600 words because it was a small amount that I could easily write in one sitting. Within one hundred days, I would have reached my goal of 60,000. As you already know, I became lazy and it kind of backfired, as I now have this giant workload. I'll probably try to up my daily word count to 1,000 to catch up faster.
