Here's my somewhat belated report on what I accomplished in terms of writing during my first Write-a-thon:

Though I wrote about 500 words for a story to be created with Eileen, I wound up not collaborating with her as planned, but with a new friend, Brian Charles Clark.  I also wrote a first draft of another story on my own; it's called "Indeed."

I wrote 500 words on the incomplete collaboration.  "Indeed" is currently 2400 words long.  It really needs revision before I'm ready to let anyone else see it.  However, the collaborations with Brian appear on his blog.  I'm pasting the URLs below so you can read them if you like.  I think they are good.  My contributions range from 50 to 200 words each.  So my total count is 3300.

My goal was 500 words per week, and I did meet that goal.

Here are the URLs for the collaborations, in chronological order:

I hope you enjoy what I've done, and I thank all of you who supported me in doing this.
