No writing today, I was focusing on my essay and getting somewhere, I’m pretty sure the next few days there are going to be a lot of short updates where I haven’t done much writing but my essay. Not even sorry, but I wanted to be done with this by now. It’s tough and I’m pretty much doubting everything I’m writing because essays are hard for me to do. A short and sweet update that’s all I’ve got today. Sometimes these might be big, sometimes these might be short but my whole idea behind this is to show just how fickle my writing can be and just how much I…

Today I’ve done no writing in my NaNo. Still a little brain dead, but I did a little in my essay, not much and not anything really I could talk about, but I did take time to just feel into how I was feeling and what I was feeling. I also had my boyfriend come over and we watched movies. Probably something I needed more than actually writing because my brain was not there at all. It was also my first day back at work in a week and I have to say it was a bit of a struggle. I needed the break for my sanity and my creativity…

Today was a tough day, I had to do more of my uni work but really I procrastinated and wrote in my nano story. I didn’t get very much farther than yesterday and because I was trying to actually get my essay done, but I actually gave up on functioning at like 2 pm and retreated to my bed for the rest of the afternoon. My cycle started and my brain just fritzed so I just watched movies but I did manage to do some writing. I did a lovely 5 minutes sprint with an awesome insta-friend, so that helped. This is also a dilemma when I slow down, the…

Today…it was the day to actually start on my essay and while I have the plan for it I managed to get like 200 words done on it and I found a few sources to use…but I actually have to go through and read those…go figure. But I managed to get up and just go to the shops, because sometimes I need to get myself out of the actual house and while I had no kitten to cuddle (well I have my cat, but he resists love toooo much!) I just needed to get out and really I wanted to get some salt lamps and some food. I think I…

I’m faced with a courtroom scene and I’ve never had to do something of the kind, which was really challenging because I’m not up on the lingo. I’m sure I could ask someone in the chat about it but this is NaNo, and I’ve got no real time to ask these sorts of questions. So I managed to get through that, with my antagonists showing up and basically proving my characters innocence, which worked out a lot better than I wanted it to. Thanks for that. I also hit 50,000 today!! It’s not my record but I did do pretty well considering I actually wanted ot hit I yesterday. And…

Today was tough as shit. I had so many issues with the story, nothing was gelling and I couldn’t get very far with what was going on in the story. I hit the dreaded week two on day two…go figure. I had the same thing happen to me last year and my hopes and dreams of hitting 50k in two days was definitely dashed by today. I did manage to pick myself up with consecutive word wars to do a neat amount of words. Lucy and Hunter did manage to finally have a scene together did involve a dream romp. It was so nice to have them on the same…
