midway through november (word count: 32,980)
I am so, so relieved to find that November is half over. At the same time, I can’t help thinking: only half??
NaNoWriMo has been a great experience so far… but my daily quota of 3000 words is starting to take a toll. (Though, actually, 3000 words was a treat today. The past two days I had to kick it up to 4000 words, to make up for a lazy day on Monday. 4000 words feels like murder, and I couldn’t string together complete sentences by the end of each day. Note to self: no more lazy Mondays.)
Taking a trip to Nebraska last weekend was a welcome break!
