Day three of NaNoWriMo and I find myself reluctant to push out another 2,000 words. I worked all day and it was crazy… I’m tired… I want to catch up with my friends on Facebook… I’ve snuck too much Halloween candy… The excuses are crowding my mind – all the reasons I should skip a day.
I know from last year that I can’t afford to give into these temptations. Miss one day and I may as well throw in the towel. Between kids, husband, work and my own projects I’m finding it difficult to squeeze in the writing but I have to find a way or accept defeat. So here I am at nearly 8pm after a long exhausting day trying to revive the characters in my mind and send them back on their way. Dr. Smeltzer, please come to center stage. It’s time for your close up.
Every NaNo second is precious.
Aha, it’s so difficult at times, but I know you’ll get back into those character’s heads. I felt a bit the same today,Sunday, I just wanted the day off but I don’t like to get behind in case there’s days coming up when I just can’t write. I got a pleasant surprise when a great character and sub plot inspired me so I’m so pleased I soldiered on. All the best Angela.
