The End is Nigh

As predicted, I've had trouble meeting my goals (sticking with writing and finishing my novel). But I've been doing a lot of journalling, if not always fiction writing, so I feel better about that. Lol.

Anyways, I have about 3k and a lot of planning done for my novel. I'm home more now, so I'm going to focus more. And I'm going with the idea that I can't fold quietly if I've told everyone :D so hi, now I'm really in for the ride.

Wow, I feel good right now. I knocked out over 1k words for the first time in a long time. Oh the strange plot patches and random twists that will hopefully lead to an ending

Man, I love/am annoyed by how the advice we so obviously give out and ignore actually works =P

lol, yeah it can be pretty funny how that happens - sometimes what it takes is for someone else to tell us, or to read it somewhere to get us to listen to the same thing we might tell someone else. Same for life in general as it is for writing! Least you're making some great progress now :-)

Well done for sticking with it, its amazing what we can achieve when we give it our best shot - (that's the advice I need to pay mind to as well ;-)Funny how easy it is to be objective, when you think you're talking about someone else!)
Anyway good on you - you're doing great, keep at it :-)

Ok, well 782 ain't- er, isn't- bad for today. Haha. The accent of one of the characters is creeping into my typing. My teachers won't be happy with my summer homework if I don't edit well now :D

I got my computer fixed though! So now everything is super-duper... distracting. But much more convenient.

Ok, I got 1081 words today, somehow, and now have 7k something. And I think I finally figured out what my book was about. Will have to go back and rewrite a huge section of it once I'm done.

The joy of a first draft right? lol I'm working on a rewrite now and it's interesting to see just how much has changed! That said, the core elements are very much the same.

Oh and I had to say, I love your sig :-) No wonder there is something wrong with me, I eat way too much fruit!

Well, I still have an hour left my time, but I don't think I can make it this month for finishing my novel. I'll work on it tomorrow though, and definitely get it done before Nanowrimo.
I have lots of excuses, such as many family visits and being constantly in the same room with irritating fighting siblings and my memere's last week of life... just wish i could've done it. But I'll get it done yet.
