What's this? Oh, it's Monday. But not just any Monday. It's the first of November! Which means... NANOWRIMO!!! *flails*
Here are my weekly metrics for the past week:
25/10 Monday: 235
26/10 Tuesday: 2022
27/10 Wednesday: 1173
28/10 Thursday: 761
29/10 Friday: 817
30/10 Saturday: 2118
31/10 Sunday: 750
Total for this week: 7876
Total word count: 66,003 (wow, almost 70k!!!!)
So, because I'm doing NaNo, I'm afraid I'll have to put Mr&Mrs Sleeping Beauty on hold for a while. But that's okay, because I think I was sorta running out of steam with it, anyways.
Also, I'd love to give a shoutout to
aekubo who totally finished her first novel, The Debutante, just before NaNo! Go you!!!!!!!
Anyways, since it's the first day of NaNo, I'd like to talk about how I'm feeling on this particular day.
For a few hours before midnight, I was feeling incredibly scared, and was thinking of backing out. Because 50k in a month? I didn't think I could do it.
But once the clock ticked over to 12:00:01, I started writing furiously. I managed to write the first chapter of Fool's Gold and send it to my new support group, which consists of
aekubo ,
need_tea ,
animewave and
Kayleigh.
So far, I'm on 3,347 words. I want to get a minimum of another 2k before the day is out. I can do this. *is pumped* I'm on such a roll. I feel so escalated, as if I can do anything. The first day of NaNo always does this to me. In a week, I'll be crying and moaning about how much I hate NaNo/writing/life/etc. But that's just me being a drama queen. :P
Also, I promise I'll try not to neglect this blog. I'll definitely be keeping a weekly word count, like I've been doing lately. And maybe other thins during the week. Yay. :)
Anyways, time to write!
