NaNoWriMo Day 8: The Other Side Is Shiny

Word count goal: 13,336 Achievement: 13,755 I’ve been freaking out over the past few days because I reached the point in my writing where I tend to put things aside. But I have good news!

And every first attempt to writeContinue reading “NaNoWriMo Day 4: The First Hurdle”

NaNoWriMo Day 2: Strange Subconcious

After achieving my word count yesterday hubs and I had cuddles while watching Heroes and Firefly. I wanted to do some more writing but as hubs is fond of saying, there’s a fine line between cuddling someone and holding them down so they can’t escape. So I gave up on writing anything more yesterday (I’dContinue reading “NaNoWriMo Day 2: Strange Subconcious”
