Only 467 words so far today. I feel like I’m getting slower and slower, as if I’m trying to walk through slowly cooling molasses. I’ve been able to make my 2,000 goal every day so far (I mean, there was that one day about a week ago where the last 400 words or so came after midnight, and thus was credited to the next day, but I made up for that), but it’s getting harder and harder. Week 2 sucks.
Day 13. 1pm. Word count: 26,724

Eileen Maksym studied philosophy at Yale and theology at Boston College, and now uses both to write science fiction. Currently she is an academic nomad, following her astrophysicist husband around the world, two kids in tow. When not writing or kid wrangling, Eileen is a hopeless fangirl. She can be found on Twitter (@eileenmaksym) squeeing over her favorite shows, most of which involve famous detectives, dashing time travelers, and creatures that are never, ever referred to as zombies.
