NaNoWriMo 2009 Or How I Wrote a Novel(la) in Fifteen Days
I also considered "Or How I Shot Past 50,000 Words While Waiting to Watch Doctor Who".
Seriously, why am I not watching it yet?!
So yeah, I'm done. 53,415 words in total. My neck hurts and my fingers are cold.
But I have a novel! A very crappy novel that totally wanders in the middle because I had no idea what I was writing, but a novel nonetheless. My first year of NaNoWriMo and I made it! Well ahead of schedule, too. That I didn't do on purpose. I just really got into a groove and I just kept going. It was kind of fun, just writing. No thinking whether what you're writing is crap, no second guessing yourself, no going back to edit. I'll have to do that next, editing, but I might wait a few days. I need to regain my sanity first. ;-)
