First week is almost down, and I think I'm starting to realize how much more planning I need for this story. I learned last year that you don't jump into a story without proper planning, it ends in misery and defeat. And I will say this, being told you failed Nanowrimo is a harrowing experience, it kills your motivation on writing for a while. The miracle? The weekend is almost here, and with it comes more oppurtunity to write, which means catching up. Nanowrimo is going to have a marathon on Saturday, but I probably won't be fully on track with that. Friday I might sit, and use a white board to do more brainstorming, so I can hopefully carry on with this 50,000 word goal.
Right now, I am at around the 10,000 word mark, a little behind, but slowly trying to catch up. I may end up looking for more motivational tools soon, but I think I can stick this out, and still make good grades in school. A writer can dream.
