So yes, I finally just named my main character. Before this, he was "MC". Good old find and replace aided me in changing his name to Pete. Pete Mansfield. Hopefully that is a good name.
As far as other characters go, his mother is Stacy, and his best friend is Jerry. That's pretty much all I've decided on so far. I figure, as I introduce characters into the story, I will assign them name as I go along.
In other news, I am already 10% into my book. "What?!!" you may ask. Oh yes, I got to the 5k word mark. You see, today was a holiday, so I had the day off work to lounge around the house and get a head start. This worked well, since I know next weekend I will be pretty busy and won't be able to do too much extra over the 1667 daily goal. Another thing I did to prepare myself was bake a whole packet of pasta yesterday. I have since killed off the chicken I baked, but will be adding some hamburger meat to the pasta sauce tomorrow. I have a lot of pasta, so it should last me through the week. Less time cooking, more time writing!
