I think I'm done with WriMo. It's really discouraging. But I feel better about it this year; I gave NaNo an honest effort, but this weekend I realized that I was getting my priorities out of whack. I was putting NaNo in front of everything else, even in front of time with God and with Evan, and I suffered for it as a consequence. That's something ( Read more... )

UUGHHHHH. I am so behind. But if I keep pushing myself and forcing myself to write, it's not gonna be fun anymore - which is the problem I ran into last year. I don't even have time to spend time with Evan. When you never see each other in real life and your relationship exists solely through the Godsend that is AIM, you really start suffering when ( Read more... )

Sigh. x) Week 2 has been very hard, and I'm only into day 2 of it! A lot of stuff has just been coming up discouraging and distracting me from my goal to win. I'm determined to finish, but at what cost ( Read more... )

I got NOTHING written Saturday, and Sunday was a meager day as well. Weekends, while being a wealth of spare time for most, are often the busiest part of the week for me. I can't use them to catch up on missing wordcount this year like I have in the past. It sucks. x ( Read more... )

Well, this shidbit is LOOOOONG. But, it's necessary - and, I hope, an interesting read. Enjoy! :D

Okay, so, this was just too good to share with you guys. I was writing feverishly tonight and I didn't discover this error until I paused and re-read the section to make sure this was where I wanted to go with the story ( Read more... )

Continuing onwards! I didn't get anything written yesterday due to exhaustion and a bad headache, so I'm trying to make today a catch-up day. Thank God I didn't have anything to do at work, so I could write. xD

Yes I am a slacker. I know this. Leave me alone. x)

Written last night before I went to bed. I was in Illinois, but since I'm running on Indiana time I cheated a bit and started at 12:00 a.m. Indiana time- which is 11:00 p.m. Illinois time. Slightly confusing but eh. I don't care. I hammered this out in about 40 minutes (ack, so slow!) and since I was sitting alone in the dark in an old drafty ( Read more... )
