NaNoWriMo Week Four: Finale

Well, that’s over. I’m going to go pass out now.

(Kidding! Kind of.)

NaNoWriMo Week 3

So…I broke my nose. Well, the cartilage in my nose, which still hurts. It’s healing now, but it was very distracting when it happened and I still have to be careful when I reach up and scratch my nose without thinking. It’s all nice and straight still, just a little bit of a bump.

Week Two

Update: my word count is very nearly on track, but my to-do list is a hopeless mess. Dang it. So, here’s a few highlights for this week.

NaNoWriMo Begins

It’s been seven days now, and I…was on track for the first day, and after that I did a few hundred words.

My project this November is a sequel to a book I wrote three years ago for NaNoWriMo. I’m calling it Respawned: Double Oops. (Working titles are hard, okay?)

Taking Time to Laugh

Spent most of the last two weeks being hopelessly behind on my writing, which was frustrating. And then I spent an evening reading funny posts on the internet, even staying up late to keep reading, and I consider that time well spent.

Choosing the Right Villain

When I decided on my NaNoWriMo project this year, I thought I knew what I was doing. Sequel to my previous work Respawned, the characters had a preexisting pickle they were stuck in, and it should have been simple to plot. And then I had to “assign an antagonist,” and it all fell apart.

I Missed a Deadline

I am somewhat rigid about keeping to deadlines.

Actually, no. That’s not true. I keep to-do lists really well. Deadlines? A little more iffy.
