NaNoWriMo 2010 !!!

Peanutter - What are you at? I'm around 5k at the moment and nap time has commenced. Hoping to get ahead of my daily quota before the weekend of sidetracking occurs!

[AnyDream]

Wow Kamarine, didn't realise you'd registered as well. Keep going, sounds like you're going really well!

[Kamarine]

Thanks Marydean. I used to write so much. I've gotten rusty now though, so it's very disjointed. Oh the urge to stop and edit!
The hardest part I've found in previous years (and in life sometimes) is not getting started, it's keeping the motivation.

Oooh Kamarine, 5k! You go girl! I've only managed a measly 1800 words so far. I'd better get moving...

[peanutter]

this is very very true ...

I am very tempted to write the second 50K of my first novel too ... I started it for Nanowrimo 2008 and have hardly touched it since ... last year I wrote about DS's birth and the complications afterwards ... it was hard but I really needed to get it all out ... I'd made notes throughout the process, but there's a lot to be said about writing it all out - I did about 80K over the first two weeks!

Compared to 2008 when I was going great guns, but then fell behind and ended up having to write the last 17,000 in the last 28 hours!!

I got there, though ... I mean hey, who needs sleep, provided that you've got enough coffee

80K in two weeks! That's sensational! Hope that writing it out was healing for you

I was always a good writer, as in could just go for it and the words would flow. And then I started looking at it from a publishing perspective and hit the wall. Struggle ever since. I'm hoping to go back to basics and just finish what I've started, write it for me, not for anyone else. That's the plan anyway!

I write book good.




It's supposed to be a totally new work.



Lots of people break that rule


I'm in.

[hey, that's 20 words already!! Now it's 28 ... ]

[Miss.September]

Hmmmmmm......wanting motivation to continue writing what I've started. So might break the rule and see if I can add 50,000 to what I have already. Let's face it...I might only have one in me!

Naughty naughty!

I reckon you can count the emoticons as words.....after all, you have to type a word to get them :P
