Good NaNoWriMo-er, Bad Blogger

So tonight at exactly 11:48 pm, I submitted my novel, and I am a winner!! :) Although my story is no where finished. But thanks to NaNoWriMo, I've finally wrote continuously throughout the month. I've never written as much as I have this month, and that's really exciting to me. I plan on taking the month of December off from writing because my brain is fried. Not only that, but I know I'm going to be exhausted from work because of Christmas. But after that, I plan on starting up writing again.

FINALLY!!!!

Tonight I was finally able to hit my 10k mark. To be more precise, I am at exactly 10,598. Yeah yeah yeah, I’m behind where I should be, but I was able to make my goal. I’m actually really excited for this novel and how I have to meet a word count pretty much everyday (or suffer the consequences) is helping me keep a decent flow so far.

And I was on a huge roll tonight. If it wasn’t getting so late, and if I haven’t been so completely tired this past week, I’d stay up longer to keep writing.

Tomorrow, I’m looking forward to getting into this same groove again, and maybe even get back to being ahead of the word count. At least I don’t have to worry about cooking dinner tomorrow, thanks to making lasagna

Well I’m bushed. Time to hit the sack.

Such a Slacker

So the past couple of days I haven’t written a single word… My weekend ended up being busier then I planned. So here I am Monday, far far far behind on my word count. As my punishment I plan on spending the next hour and a half writing. Distraction free, well I’m turning the tv off and going to try to ignore my dog who’s trying to play with my cat… That is very distracting right now. But my writing needs to get done.

I'm Bad to the Bone

Yesterday, I was a bad NaNoWriMo-er. I didn’t write a single word… actually that’s a lie..I started writing a letter that my MC gets from her stalker. I’m trying to write it Haiku style, and it looks pretty good i just hope that it works out. I have to get ready for work soon, and hopefully because it’s friday it wont be busy and I can write while I’m there, but if not I’m coming home tonight and meeting my 10k goal. By the end of the weekend I hope to be at 20k, but yet again who knows.

Unfortunately...

Unfortunately, today was not my day for goals, but I still managed to write 1655 words which still keeps me ahead of schedule with 6684 words. Since it’s almost 4 in the morning I think that I need to crawl into bed. Dog’s got a vet appointment in the morning, then I’ll be able to spend the rest of the day writing. Maybe tomorrow will be a better day to hit 10k.

Day 3

Well it’s Day 3 of NaNoWriMo, and I’m just where I wanna be with my word count. I’m getting ready to start writing for today.

Reachable Goal: 8000
Reaching Over the Top Goal: 10,000

We’ll see which one happens though. I’m hoping to bang out the 5k, and seeing how it is only 3, and I dont have to work today, I’m gonna push myself to see what I can do.

Wish me luck!

Day Two Ends

Day Two Finish Time: 11:20 pm
Word Count: 5029
Exhaustion Level: 9

It’s bedtime now!!

Day 2

Well after being kept up all night by the kitten trying to get to the hamster, I am out of bed but not exactly up. I’m hoping some food will help wake me up so I don’t fall back to sleep on the couch with the dog.

In regards to NaNoWriMo, I’m pretty pleased with my work yesterday. I almost reached 2.5k, but not quite. Today I hope to make a longer haul and get up to 5k. But we shall see what happens. If I don’t get to 5k, I’ll make the recommended NaNoWriMo word count.

Well that’s enough writing for the blog.

First task of the day is getting some food.

Second task… Hopefully getting a thousand words down before I have to go to work at 3.

Day One Ends

Day One finish time: 12:08
Word Count: 2185

Made it to my original goal, would’ve like to have seen 2.5k, but it’s time to go to bed when I can’t think of an order a kid would make at an ice cream store!! :-O lol

Day One

So today is November First, which means that I will be spending at least some part of the day writing some amount of words for my novel. Hopefully I’ll get a thousand or more by the end of the day. Right now I’m debating which story idea I wanna evolve more of. So well just have to wait and see what the end of the day brings me!
