I tried to write 50,000 words in 15 days and here's what happened

I had 15 work days in the month of August. After not getting to write regularly all summer, the ideas were SO ready to get out on paper. So what better way to get back into writing than to try to write 50,000 words across those 15 work days?

It sounded great in theory... but just a few days in, something changed and my plans got derailed.

Here's how I dealt with it, adjusting my plan and my writing habits and making some sacrifices to get as close as I could.

At this point, I have an estimated 25,000 words left that I need to write to finish this book, but I think September's writing schedule will be a little more sedate...

Have you ever tried a big, ambitious writing goal like this before? How did it go for you?
