Report from Day One

I did it! So far I'm on track. At 11:00 last night, I finally reached 1,671 words. We'll see if I can pick it up.

At one point, I started to think the idea I'm writing about is either stupid, boring, or both. It very well may be. Oh well! I should hit a good groove at some point. I don't think it's humanly possible to write 1,660 words a day about something that doesn't hold at least your own interest.

I filmed a wrecked car scene last night for the project I'm currently working on. It was great. Spalding Pull'n'Save let us pick any car, and there was a great one with severe frontal crash damage. They even let us smash the windshield for free! The makeup artist did a great job on head trauma. It was too windy to use the makeshift smoke effects. Overall, it was a good night.
