Well, tomorrow's it. The last day of Nanowrimo. I have exactly 7,382 words. Yes. I barely broke 7K. What went wrong between planning in October and now? Life. In my defense, I was only able to write 6 times. 6 days out of the 29 we've had so far. Mean teachers, why didn't they care that I've been trying to become a marathon writer? ::sigh:: I can't ( Read more... )

Hey! Too busy writing, just wanted to let y'all know that the Write-in went well, and I'm plugging away right now. Yay! I'll update with a word count before I go to bed.

Update: I was able to get my word count up to 3340 words before the baby woke up! Yay!

Whoo hoo! My muse has come back to me! ::waves to Benoît:: It's about time he dropped by for a visit. So, as of this moment, I'm 19K behind, but its okay.

Well, the last 5 days have certainly not gone to plan. I have approximately 600 words of my NaNovel written. ::hides in shame:: Yes, that's right. I'm so far behind, it's scary. But I've not given up. I plan on catching up before the Write-in on the 12th. So, to that end, I bid you farewell.

Whoopsie! There I was, sitting on the couch at 11:30pm, waiting for midnight so that I could reclaim my keyboard and write, and what happens? I fell asleep. Yes. That's right. I spent the first 10 hours of Nanowrimo sleeping on my couch. *Note to Self: Next year, don't stay up all night doing homework on the 30th.* Ah well. Shit happens, but at ( Read more... )

So... it begins. Tonight at midnight I start... Nanowrimo. The goal? To write a 50,000 word novel in 30 days. This is totally one of the coolest things I've ever done. I'm such a geek ( Read more... )
