Nano struggle

All seemed well when I undertook this year’s national Novel writing Month challenge. I was all set to head towards the goal of 50,000 words in November. I didn’t expect to be on such a roll as I was last November, I guessed it would be harder… but I was quietly confident.

I hadn’t got such a clear idea this time, and I did get off to a slow start… which was foolish, because thirty days is only thirty days. Then it occurred to me I was going to Iceland for five days, plus a day trip to London… it would be fine, I’d take my tablet and write while travelling, I’d keep up…

My tablet isn’t working… My brain isn’t doing too well either! So back from Iceland and only ten days to go.. it’ll be fine…

So, it’s the evening of the 28th, I have such a lot to do… I am not at all sure I am going to make it. I suppose I could just write rubbish to get the word count up, but what on earth would be the point of that? No I have to stay true to my writing and do it properly.

I’m going to be having a couple of late nights!

    You are doing superbly well, keep going follow your path. The prize as you know is the boosted manuscript, the amount of words that you didn’t have at the beginning. You are already a winner. Good Luck. ⌚to✒ 📃 for your 📖.
