Now up to 3k out of 10k words done, hoping to reach the goal before the new job cuts the amount of time I can dedicate

The dragons look at Churro and threaten to torch him a bit for procrastinating slightly. 
Oh no! Better not let the dragons come after me!

Weekly Wordra Update Time!
Week One: How did you do?
The word count may not show it, but I struggled this week. I couldnāt get immersed into the writing, but what made me motivated was seeing that Iām not the only one fighting against a word dragon 
You guys, and the guys on IG, all motivated me to write one more sentence each writing session!
My word dragon: 50,000
Currently: 29,685
Only got in 1385 words today. I actually thought of not writing today, but then I thought of everyone else, and decided to show up for my writing project. One sentence at a time, and I managed 1385 which is pretty good for a day where I feel the least motivated.
I also managed to introduce some new shocking lore into the story. Thereās a labyrinth dungeon somewhere now

Iād say thatās good progress, even if difficult!
As said before, I had a rather slow start, having to read a few chapters to get into the groove. Iād say there were about 4 days where I had a steady pace, and only 1 where I wrote more than 1k words.
My word dragon: 10,000
Current count: 3,147
On the bright side, I got past one of my more important scenes! Marta is currently a mess, emotionally speaking.

You have backed your word dragon up against a rock wall beneath a giant cliffā¦for now

itās a struggle for sure 
Iām at ~58k words, but Iām not advancing much. Iām having a hard time with transitions between chapters, where to end, where to begin, how much to show. Iām trying to follow my outline, but I feel like Iām going too slowā¦then if I wanna go faster and skip some scenes, I feel like Iām skipping clues.
so Iām going to try to just write out everything that comes to me. progress as much as possible. I donāt think I will finish this monthā¦but I want to at least have the words down, clumsy as they are, so I can refine them later.

I donāt know if writing in this thread last night is the thing that jogged my brain into action, but I managed to snap myself out of my slump and finished another chapter yesterday.
Iāve also revised my outline (I keep doing it because the scenes are never as long or short as expected), but I figured out a good transition that was bugging me, and Iāve got a good feel for the endingā¦ Starting to feel hopeful again that I might finish by December 1st

That music is perfect for Fantasy/Adventure genre 
I prefer video essays or rap/reggaeton music to immerse me into stories. I think depending on what youāre writing about and the genre, the music should go with it to immerse you.
