The past few days have been a bit of a mixed bag for me. On both Friday and Sunday I was quite bad and didn't actually start writing until about 11 at night despite not having anything else to do, so I only got 1,595 and 2,073 words done respectively.

Okay, so this year my distraction mode has kicked in extra early, hitting me on the 2nd day of NaNo! Yep, that's right, yesterday the only writing I got done was at work between the official end of the work day and the start of the experiment set-up for which I stayed late (we have to wait until a certain before we can start).

We were originally going to go towards Tavira today, but I really wanted to see the bone chapel which was located in the other direction, so we did Alcantarilha for the chapel and then Silve and Alte instead. I think it was well worth it though my ( Read more... )

As predicted, we had bad weather here today, which meant that I had a lot of time to write and I made good use of it ( Read more... )

I didn't quite make my new word count goal for today, but since I ended up going back and writing some more yesterday, I'm still on target to reach my upper word count goal for the month ( Read more... )
