How I did it
How to do NaNoWriMo
It took me
30 days
It made me
ecstatic!

How I did it: Discipline, discipline, discipline! Sounds boring but i tried to keep the schedule tight.After work and after the daily chores (diner, cleaning, phone calls etc..) instead of hanging in front of the TV or surfing on the internet i forced myself to write at least 2 k every night. I actually had a downfall in week 3, around the 30k but I had come so far that I refused to quit at that point! I managed to get inspired again through the commen… Read how I did it…

Do NaNoWriMo (read all 5 entries…)
So far... 7 months ago

Week 2 is going surprisingly well! I finally got into the “heat” of the plot but am worrying I’m going a little too fast… I have a little over 23 k now. And hopefully I’ll have enough ideas left to make it to the big 50k! But i do have enough characters i guess, so maybe i’ll have to introduce some sub-plots here and there. The end of the week is going to be rather busy for me so hopefully i will not fall behind.

But it is good to know that everyone is struggling (maybe some more than others) with the same issues. Hang in there folks!

Just wanted... 8 months ago

to thank you all for posting here about your experiences with NaNoWriMo so far: hopes or fears, whatever.. It inspires me to continue writing each night after work, even when I’m exhausted and totally not inspired. Reached the 10.000 words yesterday, so I’m attacking the next 10.000 tonight! Keep it up!

Update 8 months ago

5350 words!! But that’s just because it’s sunday. Starting tomorrow i wonder how the workweek is going to affect my writing.
My plot is going well though, still a lot to tell so i’ll really need those 50k words!
Hope everyone has started off well this weekend!
