So far, I'm sucking at NaNoWriMo. Saturday I didn't really write much at all. I stared at 1 paragraph and picked it apart for about an hour. I finally kicked out about a half a page and watched SNL. Last night I got emblazoned, but kept editing which cost me a lot of time. I figure I should be averaging about 2 chapters a day right now, and so far... no, not so much.

I have this fear that keeps me from getting farther right now. Fear that I'm relying too much on dialog and not enough on circumstance (or vice verse). Fear that I'm sucking a lot. And I know that second fear is extremely rational in this competition, but I'm just not used to it stalling me.

This couldn't be a more inconvenient week for me. Tonight I have to work late, tomorrow is the election, work is increasingly hectic. I know I'll pull through but I don't want my word count to suffer. I think Wednesday and Thursday will be some good days to write.

I do not have a title for it yet. I'm no good at titles.
