Ahhh, people can already validate and win NaNoWriMo! I'm still far from that. Definitely waaaay behind this year. Still attempting to finish but uh, it's looking quite impossible at the moment. I tried writing on my tablet when I wasn't home. It was super hard. I spent way too much time wrestling with the writing app since whenever I started a new ( Read more... )

I have completely dropped the ball with NaNoWriMo, writing anywhere between 0 to 1500 words a day, but not even meeting the minimum. I think I'm behind by 11k or so? Hm. I'm hoping I can continuously write 5k for the next two days, haha (except I haven't even written over 2k for any single day yet). Let's see if I can do it. But is this story even ( Read more... )

Oh dear. I think I'm doing worse than last year! I started 5 days late last year and was 8000 words or so behind because of that, so I tried my hardest to catch up every single day by writing at least 1,667 words a day and almost always more than that to shrink the gap. This year though, even though I haven't missed 5 days in a row, I haven't ( Read more... )

Sadly, for both Day 8 and Day 9, I didn't reach 1,667 words but only wrote a little more than 1000 each day. 1k is a nice, comfortable word count for me. 1.6k is apparently not. Of course, I blame Day 9's word count on Legend of Sun Knight volume 8 (and my unwillingness to put it down ( Read more... )

Still just barely hanging on, and not caught up yet! Hope to write another 300 words before I sleep to break 10k. :3 That, or finish chapter 1. Somehow, Tekatme is completely surrounded by females in this story, though none are his age... (While my NaNo last year was very dominated by males). I am amused by this. I'm not trying to build him a harem ( Read more... )

Well, I managed today's word count, but I haven't made up for the past two days yet! Still, there's hope! I'm just floored by my writing buddies who've already written over 20k. I'm looking at you, absolutehymn007 and nitaspitas. =P ( Read more... )

I have hit a wall. Splat. Granted, I'm still in a better shape than I was last year when I was 8000 words behind on the 5th day because of not yet starting...but I quite deflated on Day 4 because I was only able to write 600 words that day. Day 5 went the same because of feeling down from Day 4, and I also decided that I should probably take out ( Read more... )

I can almost see the end of the prologue! *_____* The prologue wasn't meant to be this long. OTL /dislikes the boring prologue. I mean, if the prologue turns out to be 10,000 words, then what does that leave the rest of the chapters...? I plan to wrap this novel up in 50k ( Read more... )

Didn't manage to write 1,667 words for Day 2 (darn) but I wrote around 1,500 words or so. And then wrote another 100 something after midnight. (boooo) Day 2's writing took particularly long because I spent most of my time editing what I wrote on Day 1 and adding on to that. Probably not smart for the sake of my word count, but there was a lot of ( Read more... )
