Day 25-something - Wow, I’m still here?

And I even wrote a little today. Nothing world-shaking, but more than 1k. Sure, I’ll never make it for Nov. 30. But maybe I’ll be able to add a complete new chapter to the story in a few days. Maybe.

Day 20

Hmm. At least I avoided the humiliation of writing less than 1,000 words today. And I didn’t think that officially giving up was just so hard - someday, my pride will kill me, I guess! ;)

Day 19 - Blah

I finally passed the 20k words. I guess I won’t go much further though. There’s too much going on right now for me to still have time to write and, above all, desire and commitment. I think I can do something nice with that story, but right now, I’m not doing it, really. Because I can’t. I just can’t.

I’ll go on writing it during November if I find some of that elusive time and passion back, but with 30k words to go in 10 days, and the exams looming ahead, I very much doubt I’ll make it in time to win NaNo. I will go on writing it, though. There’s no doubt about that. I just can’ tell now when I finish it.

And updates here are still to be expected anyway!

Day 18 - Simply Day 18

That’s one sucky word count for yesterday. But given the day I’ve had, I’m not surprised at all…

Day 17 - An evening’s word count

Chapter done. I ended up naming him Caine all the same. Duh. T_T But I swear it’s because I’m considering reading the Amber series again, and I quite liked the character of Caine there. Yeah, Julian’s and Gerard’s brother. That Caine. Twisted enough to my liking. So I snatched his name away.

I’ve gone under the regular 1,667 words, but couldn’t reach the 2439 words I need to write to make it to 50k by the 30th. Tough. Truth is, I still have Sanctuary to finish, as well as other books to read for school, so I’m now devoting time for these again!
