NaNoWriMo 2009: Day One
So I actually decided to do NaNoWriMo this year. I was all ready to start writing a second past midnight, but I got tired so I didn't start writing until I got up this morning. Thank goodness for Daylight Savings, is all I have to say. It felt like it was later in the day when it actually wasn't.
After a day of writing, with some time slacking off in the middle because, hey, it wouldn't be writing without some procrastination, I have enough words to cover my quota for today and tomorrow. I expect my lead will start to lag behind once I head into work. I know I said I plan to write at work, but it all depends on my work load is and how I'm feeling. If I'm not feeling motivated, I don't see much getting done. But we'll see. I don't want to abandon this.
I foresee myself becoming even more of a hermit as the month goes on. I like getting things done and not meeting my daily quote of 1667 words will probably drive me insane. But can I really say to my friends, "Don't bug me! I'm writing a novel!"? I can't spend every minute of my free time writing. That would probably drive me nuts, too. And Doctor Who is back on the 15th! That's distracting, too.
I'll get down a routine or something. Who needs to interact with the real world anyway? It's getting cold out.
