St. Peter’s Brewery aka a #nanowrimo update

Here’s my stats as of right now. I’ve gotten a little bit behind, as you can see I haven’t updated each and every day.

Starting out, I think you need an average of 1,666 words a day to finish all 50,000 words in a month. I think my average for the remaining 20 days is now around 1,950 words a day (that also takes in consideration the 2-3 days I’ll probably miss this weekend due to the marriage retreat we’ll be going on).

So anyways, I’m having fun, trying not to think about it too much as in making plot decisions, grammar and such (I think that’s the biggest suggestion everyone has given).

Here’s to hoping I’ll win and have something worth sharing at the end.

A few random trivia points thus far. See if you can piece the story together. šŸ™‚

  • The name of the book is St. Peter’s Brewery
  • The title comes from a scene in Jamie Moffett’s great documentary, “Ordinary Radicals
  • Many of the brews served at St. Peter’s are inspired by beers at Pagosa Springs Brewery or St. Arnold’s.
  • One of the characters is named G.T. He’s a tall truck driver with a long goatee and loves community and organic communities of faith.
  • It takes place in a small Central Texas town.
  • Just introduced a group of seven folks who live on a farm together.

OK that’s all you get for now – unless you can track down my profile on Nanowrimo.org šŸ™‚
