Sooo... I may or may not be rather far behind on NaNo again... Alright, there's no maybe about it. I am. *Sigh* I was supposed to write Tuesday night after I finished my blog post, and, well, yeah. I got sidetracked and I was tired already. I don't think I actually got any words down … Continue reading Stressing For A Win

The Final Stretch
We're in the final stretch of NaNoWriMo now. Just a week left. (I'm not counting today because it's nearly over now.) Are you panicking yet? I'm not, surprisingly. Not really at least. I am a little bit because I work the rest of this week -- yes, including Thanksgiving, retail sucks -- and I don't know … Continue reading The Final Stretch
Finding My Way
I am really sucking at writing on the days I work this month. I think there's been a total of maybe four days I worked that I also managed to write. You know the sad part to that? They were during the first week of NaNo when I was so exhausted off my ass that … Continue reading Finding My Way
Funks, Sprints, and Revelations
Before I even dive into my ramblings, I'm going to start with this... I know, I know. I missed Friday's blog post. Shame on me. *Slaps hand* I have a reason for it. While I may not be able to say it's a particularly valid reason, I do have a reason. To anyone who read … Continue reading Funks, Sprints, and Revelations
Barely Surviving
I've survived the first week of NaNo! Sort of. I'm just barely hanging onto par, but I'm hanging on. Well, actually, because of today's inconvenient time frame that was work, I'm going to fall below par in roughly an twenty minutes. But I'm sort of holding on for now. I was off Sunday and Monday … Continue reading Barely Surviving
Struggling Already
Well that plan I had to stay on track for NaNoWriMo during work days hasn't worked out. Wait... Did I even mention said plan in Tuesday's post? Or am I just thinking I did when in reality I really said it to a friend yesterday and I just can't remember which one I really did? (I … Continue reading Struggling Already
Hanging On
So my Plan of Action I talked about on Tuesday started out alright. I got through everything on my list for Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday. (Well, I missed one minor thing on Wednesday which wasn't a big deal.) And then Thursday hit. And Thursday just killed me. You see, before Thursday I hadn't slept more … Continue reading Hanging On
What’s Next?
I feel lost... Camp NaNo has officially ended for April and now I'm not quite sure what I'm doing with myself. It always feels this way after one of these months; like I'm supposed to be doing something but I can't quite figure out what. I feel like I should still be making a mad dash in … Continue reading What’s Next?
Winner! But Not Done Yet
That's right! I made it, baby! Camp NaNoWriMo April 2016 WINNER! 28 days, 61,060 words (61,038 after validating), 128 pages, 6.5 chapters finished, and one more chapter started. This is the highest goal I've ever set for a NaNo month and I made it! I'm quite proud of that. It's been an interesting month to … Continue reading Winner! But Not Done Yet
The Final Countdown
Now I am panicking. Well, sort of. There is five days left to April's Camp NaNo -- counting today -- and I still need 11,991 words to hit goal and validate. Why did I set a goal of 60k? Why didn't I just leave it at a nice 50k? Why did I even wish for … Continue reading The Final Countdown
