Six scenes in four days

That’s the goal. I have a story outline with six scenes, and I want it to be a complete draft by the end of the day on Sunday, which gives me 4 days (not including today). I’ll be shooting for a total wordcount of 5,000 words (which is the max length for the market I have in mind for this story). I suspect I’ll end up a bit over that, but I can trim later if need be.

Word quotas have worked well for me in the past, so I’ll try it again. Minimum output of 1.5k per day, starting tomorrow and ending on Sunday (yes, that adds up to more than 5k, I know). Any text that gets generated today is purely bonus — I’m a morning writer and it’s already past my peak productivity hours.
