Last night we had three storms in a row. I was upstairs, writing by lamplight when I heard the first rumblings of thunder in the distance. The wind began to pick up and as the first storm broke the lights flickered and rain battered the windows. I switched to a scene where my main character is battling her emotions and an enormous amount of guilt while a storm is raging outside. Suffice to say I got 3,000 words hammered out while also viewing a spectacular lightning show. And judging from the sky outside we might be in luck for another storm tonight.
Have a good weekend everyone.

Thanks, BT :)
Sweet!
I love Mother Nature.
Great numbers, I totally resent you ;-) Continued success. :-)
Great thunderstorms from the heavens...that's a nice word count.
Wow, I bow to your word count.
That's awesome! I love storms, but I don't know if I could write during one. I would be too busy looking out the window. Nice storm-word count. :)
very nice! doing good danielle!
I wonder if all the fireworks going off in the UK caused the storms down under. :D Congrats on your progress.
Great stuff. Inspiration delivered to your front door. Great total, Danielle!
Kickin ass and takin names! There's nothing better than a storm for churning that kind of thing up. How freaking cool.
Congrats on the word count and multi-cudos for being quick enough to use the inspiration for the scene (and having a scene planned so you knew it was there).
I love storms too. I sit outside and watch them as long as I can without feeling like I'm lightning bate, then come in dripping wet and exhilarated.
The cautious practical person in me has to turn my computer off in fear of electrical surges breaking through the surge protector.
Thanks guys.
