Wow so there was nothing to do at work today. So I managed to pull out my trusty laptop and knock out a couple thousand words. So far today I have managed to get in 4K which isn't to bad. I really would like to have a 10K day today so I better get a move on it if I am going to make that goal.
The story is going well enough, even if a lot of it is just word vomit that will have to be taken care of in edits. I guess that is the point of NaNo though, quantity over quality and that is what I am doing. Although I am happy that I am forcing myself to write my 100K rather than only 50K. It's been a VERY long time since I got the chance to actually write anything so it feels good to get words on paper... er... computer.
I was reading over Fi's blog and I had to try the link that she had there for write or die. I have to say that I am hooked like a crack head needs crack. Last night I had no motivation to write anything but when I pulled that out I couldn't stop. I was averaging about 700 words in 10 mins so I was damn proud of myself. Thanks to that I managed to get my 3336 for the day so woo go me.
I guess that I like where the story is going... even if it wasn't anywhere near where I wanted it to go. It is keeping me on my toes and writing because even I want to know what happens. I mean I know how the ending is going to work out... that never changed, but their personalities of my characters did change from what I wanted them to be (from the very start Shouta was giving me problems) and now there are all these new characters that I never intended to have be there. But surprise there they are. *sigh*
This story has a mind of it's own and this new character that I know nothing about is demanding to be talked about in the story so I suppose I should try to work a bit more towards my 10K!
