Week Three

Hey everyone! I realize I am really late on the blog chain this week... There were so many other things to do this week that I had to reserve what little time I had left for my writing. The happy result of that is, though, that I am now 45k into my novel! 50k is near, but my guess is that the story will perhaps need another 10k after that.

I had a moment this last week when I suddenly realized I hadn't actually figured out the climax of the story yet. (It was a moment of panic.)

But with the help of my dear friend Liz I figured at least part of it out, and now I am happily writing again. Still not quite sure how everything will end, but at least I am moving in some direction.

In anticipation of my usual post-50k slump and lack of motiviation, I have decided that once I hit 50,000 words, I will go back to my One-Word-A-Day Rule . Hopefully that way I will be able to complete the first draft within the month, before I disappear in moving chaos entirely in December. ;)

I hope all your drafts are going well!

  1. Congratulations on being so close! I've totally fallen behind this week. I'm still hoping to catch up and pull something off by the end of the month. I think I'm going to have to try a 10K in a day again like last year. ;)

  2. Oh nice! You are really close to the completion of NaNo! Congratulations! Keep that momentum going until done and you'll be so happy with yourself! (I know I would be!) Good luck with the move, moving sucks only did it once, but I never want to do it again. And good luck with completing your book (regardless of NaNo progress)
