NaNo 2012
Well today marks the first day of NaNoWriMo or National Novel Writing month. All of November authors, writers and fans attempt to write a 50,000 word novel in one month. Which boils down to 1666 words a day. It is 8 pm at my house right now and have I started my daily wordage yet. Nope! Am I? Probably not today. Two years ago I did Nano and I started a week late and the novel that transpired was the first book of the UnEnchanted series. I found the picture and inspiration for my book in the first week of November. So I will probably start writing tomorrow. Yep that means I'll have to type 3,200 words tomorrow. But I need to finish a different book, so it may be the kick in the pants I need to pump out and finish my book.
Well yes, I am a procrastinator and I tend to get easily distracted. But that doesn't mean I can't whip up a good book in a frenzy. I tend to work the best under pressure anyway. Are you writing a book for National Novel Writing Month? If your a teen that I would suggest trying to write a short story. Aim for 10,000 words. That would be writing 300 words a day and I'm positive most teens text more than three hundred words each day. LOL
So what is your project? What's your goal for the month?

I've got like 200 words. I fail every year. Life's too hectic!
How many pages does that work out to be (average) per Day? I can,t seem to visualise a word count, but I can sure see a page count, esp. when my daughter at bedtime is allowed to read for x minutes and then gets to "finish her page" which sure seems to take a long while. Koodos for sticking with it ans ignoring my spellung and grammar- it is so hard to type on this thing wirhout going back five times to fix a word you thought you got rifht the first time around.
I attempt Nano nearly every year, and have yet to finish...for some reason there seem to be great life shifts during my Novembers...always conflicting with the effort. Congratulations on your success stemming from the wickedly awesome Nano project! I thoroughly enjoy your creativity.
