Day 21 Write Every Day
May. 22nd, 2026 12:25 amIntro/FAQ
My check in: I wrote more than a few sentences and suddenly realized that I have to coordinate time lines between two groups of characters. One group in on a yacht moving from Seattle area to LA. The other group is in Paris and has to fly and arrive in LA and not long after traveling long distances to get from SF to Paris to begin with. Or some of them later coming from Seattle to Paris.
So, I'm in the middle of trying to integrate the time line of what is happening in each group to move the plot along in a reasonable time frame for each and figure out how fast a yacht can get to LA and how quickly one can rent a private plane to get from Paris to LA and what can be determined about the location of the boat via satellite tracking systems--enough of explaining it--my brain is worn out and I cannot do it anymore--and I'm going to have to rewrite some of what I've written because the time line is all wrong for what I wrote.
Whew
I keep forgetting to say: PLEASE If I make a mistake and don't count you on a day, please let me know.
