NaNoWriMo Adventures - Day 9

I had a fantastic morning write where I did something I never do...I went back. I try to always write forward when I'm drafting a story. Going back usually stalls out my momentum. Well, it did, but the scene was completely necessary...well, not all of the scene. But I didn't know that until I was done with it, and the rule of NaNo is no deleting. So it adds to my word count, though most of it will wind up in a different book. But then, most of this draft won't see the light of day in its present incarnation. Tomorrow I'll be writing forward again, so hopefully I'll find a groove and post some serious numbers!

NaNoWriMo Adventures - Day 7

Today started off promising - I had a great write at Starbucks while my big kiddo was in a safety class...but my afternoon write was thwarted by a naptime debacle woth the tiny kiddo and the realization that my small kiddo is probably only two games away from being able to beat me at chess. Thankfully, my bedtime write saved the day. I didn't get ahead, but I didn't fall behind.

I still haven't managed to get them out of the restaurant (the goal was to be in Malibu today). Tomorrow is another day...

NaNoWriMo Adventures - Day 4

So...I thought I was done for the day because I...um...put my character to sleep. Hey, it happens and can be fixed later according to the WriMo gods. Anywho, I loohed onto http://www.nanowrimo.org/ and saw that too many of my so-called buddies were 'beating' me...and decided to write 200 more words. Peer pressure can be a good thing.

Day the first

I am such a groover writer. I dumped all I know about this story out and then...um...yeah. Tomorrow's numbers won't be nearly so impressive.
