nanowrimo sprint to the finish

[marcicat]

I don’t know about anyone else, but Monday (back to work after a four-day weekend, starting the run-up to Christmas) is not a day I want to count on to be a 1667 word day. I’m keeping it in reserve as an emergency finishing day, but my goal is to reach 50,000 by midnight Sunday.

And I wrote almost nothing yesterday, so let’s see, that leaves 7600 words to write and three days. Well. It’s good to have goals?

It's sort of like a sprinting marathon. The worst combination of speed and distance are required to complete this nano. On the other hand, I just went back through my nano tag for last year, and apparently I was in pretty much the same place then…

You can do it! You're awesome! ♥

We are definitely in the 'why did I ever decide to do this' stage! But that means next week at this point we'll be in the 'heck yeah we rock!' stage, which is pretty awesome.

Here's a song* for the day:

"just keep swimming,
swimming, swimming,
write some random stuff,
to get to 50,000"

[*note: not really a song, but you can sing it! also, not sure if those first two lines need to be attributed to Pixar?]

Perfect! I'm going to insert this song into my novel one thousand times (I counted "50,000" as "fifty thousand" because it's more words) and I'll be almost done!

Totally the NaNo song: "someone remind me why I thought that this would be fun"
