So I do intend to participate in National Novel Writing Month this year, although my personal goal likely will not be the full 50,000 words by November 30. It'll probably be a much less strenuous 25,000. Why? Among other reasons, for one, I really don't foresee my morale or enthusiasm holding out for 50K. I've also come up painfully short the last ( Read more... )

I am *this* close to quitting NaNo. I've forced myself to write every day since it began, and it's been an uphill battle ever since day one. The writing isn't coming easy this year, and there are a LOT of distractions in my day-to-day life that I didn't have to deal with before. So many things are changing and happening this month that I find ( Read more... )

I am falling so behind, it's overwhelming... 6000 words to go before I'm caught up. Eeeeee.

Total wordcount: 14,536
( It's so classified, it's off the record. )

A bit of a larger shidbit for y'all to enjoy. This one was written much faster, and was a great boost to my morale. The previous parts had come slowly, hard, and painfully. I think my muse was constipated. >) I'm still 1300-or-so shy of where I should be, but I'm on the right track ( Read more... )

Blugh. Come on muse, get cracking!

Total wordcount: 9060

Still sick. Still running a temperature of 100.5. Yay. But, at least I got some writing done while doing what I could to enjoy my first Sick Day. I'm not quite caught up to where I need to be, wordcount-wise (another 2k or so needed for that), but at least I've got yesterday's lack made up for. And besides! I'm loving the suspense I seem to be ( Read more... )

I sick. I got no writing done today. I have fever of 101.3 (AFTER two ibuprofen). I halfway hope I will still have a temperature tomorrow so I can legitimately call in sick. x ( Read more... )

Part 2, which, in the chronology of the book, should technically be part one. :P After writing last night's tidbit, I realized that I really didn't like it, and I had this great idea for a side plot which would be much more interesting and a much better way to start the book. So this here is Part 1!

Total Wordcount: 3601
( What is this? )

Hooray for NaNo!

Note: the Founder known as Kay will henceforth be known as Kae. It would just get too confused with my own name otherwise. :P

Wordcount: 1751
Tentative goal today: 2500

“I’ll be back.” The words echoed in my ears, sounding like a direct quote from an old movie we used to watch on Earth. That’s probably where he got them. Matt ( Read more... )

As of now it is 11:59. And I don't know how to start my novel.

EEEEE!

I'm sure I'll figure it out at some point. But I'd REALLY like to have some wordcount down tonight!!!
