And I crashed and burned. LOL. Truthfully just too much on my plate. Now, normally that’s not a big deal 🙂 But I couldn’t push through my real life to keep on task with nano in addition to my current WIP and edits for an upcoming release. I got 15-17k I think so I’ll definitely…

   
Nano Day 15? 16? I can’t believe it. Is this considered the two week mark? Not sure but I’m chugging along frantically. My motivation goes up and down :p Right now I’m so far behind its crazier than my heroine. I think at last check on Friday I was 11k and change. Boo.Hiss. LOL. This is…

   
I guess one could say I’m 10 days in though I technically didn’t start until 11/3, I think. At least that’s the story I’m going with. I have made good strides from that disastrous 500 word sprint. I’m currently around 9k and some change. Nothing to write home about but the story is finally moving…

   
I should have known this nano would be different. The signs were all there that this would be a real challenge. Did I back down? Nope. Forged ahead like a lamb to slaughter and here I sit with 500 words on Day 3. LOL. 500! but that’s okay. I’m in the spirit, have my writing…

   
What was I thinking? That’s the question I’m asking myself the 3rd year in a row and here I sit people. Doing nano 🙂 🙂 Wish my luck. I’m doing a sci-fi romance…yep. LOL. My hero today is a government agent, tomorrow…who knows. My heroine is a villain. *gasp* Why? I’m so glad you asked. I…

   
This is the final stretch my nano brethren. Almost a full week left to rev the engines and bring your project home at 50k. How are you doing? Stressed? In a panic? If you’re in the US, the holiday this week could be a plus or minus. A plus if you get extra time off…

   
Done. On November 17th I typed the end on my #nano project. I think I came in around 50,206 words. I’ve immediately put it on the side to focus back on a novella I started that needs to be done by months end. Here’s hoping the muse from #nanowrimo stays with me and I can blow…

   
Really? 14 days into nano? When did that happen? I think my heads been buried so far in the laptop that I missed the pressure of performing and watching the calendar fly by. Seriously, I’ve never written so much, so fast. I’m at the halfway point of the month and I should be hearing crickets…

   
This year it seems like nano is flying by rather quickly. We’re already 9 day into the national writing marathon and have 2 weekends under our belt. I definitely made up for the sluggish week with a great word count on Friday and Saturday. Of course, Sunday wasn’t as good to me and I closed…

   
Oh nanowrimo why do I love thee? I think that’s my sarcasm font on. LOL. Alright-y, we’ve got one week under our belts for my fellow nano-ers. Um… or whatever we decide to call ourselves 🙂 I started off FANFREAKINGTASTIC for the weekend and fell to a quiet dribble. Granted lost internet, got sick, had an…
