Well, end of week 2 of NaNoWriMo and I’ve only written 5376 words. On the plus side, it’s about 2000 words more than the longest story I’ve ever written, which I’ve recently submitted to Siren’s Call online magazine for possible publication in one of their anthologies - if they like it! That’s the reason why I didn’t have much time for prep before NaNo and am now getting bogged down with minutae that I should’ve done then... hey ho.
I’m amazed that I’ve written so many words and that I’m just beginning - I’m shocked that it’s only day one in my story - as I said, it’s turning into a monster!
I’ll update again next week, when hopefully a free weekend will mean I get a lot more written to up my word count - I might not write 50000 words in the month, but I will have written more than I’ve ever done before and in my book, that’s a win.
‘til then...
Shel
