NaNoWriMo – Day Three

November 3, 2009

nano_09_blk_participant_100x100_1.pngIt has been one long day.

I woke up this morning intent on catching up on my NaNoWriMo word count, but then things started to get crazy. Homework, housework, family, and friends all seemed to need extra attention today.

On top of that, my dog Pearl is pregnant and should be having a puppy any day soon. I’ve been extra worried about her because she is only having one puppy, and it is getting BIG. Insert emergency visit to the veterinarian this afternoon. Don’t worry. All is well for now.

After her appointment, I came home and wrote for two hours along with the Scribblerati NaNoWriMo group. That was good because knowing that other writers were doing the same thing I was at the same time really helped encourage me to just write. If you haven’t heard of it, go check it out.

I’m not quite sure where I’m going with this novel yet, and I keep censoring myself. I’m having a really hard time letting myself just write. Yesterday, I wrote and wrote with no problems, but today, I seem to be having a harder time letting go.

Anyway. Upward and onward, right? I’m a little behind, but I’m still in this till the end. Hopefully, I can catch up tonight and tomorrow. Here are my stats so far:

NaNoWriMo WordCount

Day 1: 0
Day 2: 600
Day 3: 1840

Total: 2440
Goal: 5000

And so, how’s it been going?

Thanks Lyn!

Lisa- Not so well. Had a tough week of it last week, and now I’m behind. I’m still hoping to catch up though. It’s not going to be easy. I have a new blog post coming soon though with an update.

Thanks a ton for checking up on me!
