NaNoWriMo: Day Five - NaNoWriMo
Posted on: 2007-11-06 00:40:53

Well, it did not take me too terribly long to fall behind. As of right now, I am about 3500 behind. I was way ahead on day 1 and 2, but did not type at all over the weekend. I hit a very small snag in my story and I wanted to catch up on some podcasts that I had been letting pile up, so it was not all that productive. It did give me an opportunity to figure out who to work around my snag, though. Tonight, I rewrote part of a scene, pulling out maybe 400 words in order for it to fit. I then added part of another scene and got distraced by the fact that my wife is cute. All-in-all I think I only upped my counter by 100-150 words, but I have plenty of time, so I won't stress over numbers. As for tomorrow, I don't really know what I am working, so I am not sure how much time I can devote to the effort, but I know I have at least two scenes that will practically write themselves. After that, I want to go through, and tighten up any loose ends that tonight's rewrite created.

With tonights change, I am fairly sure I can hit the 50k mark by the 31st. What is more important to me, is that I think I can take the story a lot farther than that. Tonights change is also going to give me a more clearly defined breaking point in the first couple of chapters and control the flow for the next maybe 10-15 pages (10k words). So I guess I am kinda excited.

Hopefully Erin isn't distracting you too much. (I find Kitty cuter.) Anyways hope you can finish writing it soon.

It would just be wrong if you found your sister cute.

Yeah....

Well I think all you girls are cute in a paternal way.
