http://750words.com/entries/share/2201823. Yup, I went onto 750words.com. Hopefully this will energize me to finish my novel quickly! :D

Another little bit about my last comment...I pasted in for that one. It was written elsewhere than on there. Hence, the "Writing started at 10:08am and stopped immediately, bam." :D

Also, forget the Rating. They didn't know what they were talking about, and it is DEFINITELY NOT "PG"! What I put in was for A Miracle in Capernaum!!! (is that spelled right?) :D You know the story--they're lying. ;)

Ah, right! ;) I wonder if they ever hand out "nicer" ratings??? IF mine is PG, and 8-year olds are going to read it, then we have a REAL problem!!!

What I wrote yesterday (for my novel) was rated PG-13. The machines must just pick and choose their words to rate it. It wasn't really that bad.
