BLECH

Nov 15, 2007 19:40

Recently everything in my life (outside of school) has been so sporadic. My writing and computer habits are insane.

I get maybe three days of good writing (most likely over the weekend), then I absolutely FAIL Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday, and get back on track on Friday/Sat/Sun. I don't know what is with me, it's insane. And so far, I've been on the NaNo forums only like three times. In the whole half of the month. It really is insane!

Everything is mixed up; my novel feels good then horrible then just pure BLAH (that's where I'm at now). I don't know what I'm doing. I just need to get this novel done and I will happy. But it's been so hard to keep writing! I haven't thought about actually giving up on the whole thing because I'm too stubborn, but if I don't want to write, I really can't do anything to stop myself. It's terrible that I've finally discovered I actually have more power over myself than my wordcount does.

Novel is feeling blah right now. So am I. I have new ideas I want to incorporate somehow, but I feel just too tired to do it! But not too tired to fool around on the computer elsewhere. Hmph.

My novel really does suck. I know that. Most of it is made up of thoughts, rather than description or action or - ohmygosh - dialogue! I can't write dialogue. I'm too much of a hermit, I think. And I have trouble writing in the moment. I dictate everything instead of showing and it is driving me CRAZY.

I don't know what's happening, I'll come back when I do. Or maybe just as soon as I've written something.

PS - wordcount = 31,589 (goal for today was 40k, though I had also wanted to have 50k by now at one point) I've written 1.5k in the past three days.

nanowrimo, blah
