Ingathering just isn't doing it for me.<br /><br />I shouldn't worry so much about word count, but it seems a convenient way to measure progress.Karen Goltzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03143637292265982687noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3931390868304042371.post-21978313531736368942013-04-04T17:14:55.868-04:002013-04-04T17:14:55.868-04:00What you said about Ingathering is exactly how I f...What you said about Ingathering is exactly how I fet about The Bourne Deception. The book was okay, written decent enough, but he jumped around a lot to fill in the story and it was tough to keep up. I finally got through it but don't think I'll read many books like that again.<br /><br />I give you huge high fives to be able to keep up with not only all that reading but so many different writing projects in addition to your everyday life. Stephen King started his career in a much different time. And personally I think half that every day is a pretty respectable count :-)Jenn Flynn-Shonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08441834864191292424noreply@blogger.com
