Nov. 1st, 2008 09:00 pmOne: I will go insane if I see another word count update at either ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
lj_nanowrimo or nanowrimo. News of your word count does not merit a separate post, and I hope someone will make a Word Count thread. My friends list is like spammed with all that stuff. How annoying.
Two: Whee. NaNoWriMo, I love you!
This year, it was a much more difficult start than I anticipated, though. I tried writing at midnight, deleted my beginning several times, but I eventually went to bed after about eight hundred words. However, once I woke up, I wasn't happy with it. I started over and got 4K in one version... only to give up on it and go to my original. I deleted a bit of my original chapter, but then easily wrote over it. So far, I am very happy with what's been going on so far, but I already know I'll need a lot of editing.
But still!
I wrote 5,101 words today (not counting the 4K of the other version that I scrapped), so I'm really happy. I definitely think I will reach at least 10K tomorrow, even though I have a research paper to do and a 100 word paragraph for English.
How is everyone else doing at NaNo? Is it going well?
Three: Yeah. That research paper. It's due on Monday. I might work on it a bit tonight, but if not, that'll be my second priority, right after getting my 5K in NaNo. (I know, school before NaNo and all that, but you know, I don't care.) Blah.
Oh, and that paragraph.
That'll take at most a half hour (it'll only take that long because you can't use one word more than once, btw), so it's not that bad.
But blah.
I have written too many words today. This post is incoherent. I think I will go to bed a bit earlier today. Either that or do something mindless.
(I will definitely enjoy that extra hour of sleep tonight...)
