modernwizardI'm at 9765 words, which is 19.5% done. It's also 150 ahead of schedule.
I'm very ambivalent about the project right now. Almost 2000 words a day takes up almost all of my time. Writing becomes a chore that I resent, rather than an exhilarating project that challenges me. Well, meeting exigent word limits challenges me, but my excitement and creativity suffer greatly.
I am seriously considering dropping my word limit to something more attainable, but still challenging, like 1200 words or so, for the month of November. I clearly won't hit 50000 words, but I will participate in the mind-altering fun of NaNo, but without self-flagellation.
Any opinions?
