I’m going to take a short break, guys. @aella , @dragon-snapper
November 4, 2016 at 1:47 pm #20318@overcomer
Thanks 😀
@dragon-snapper
I got in 596 words over that time, as I had to take a couple of breaks as well. Now I’ll be off for a bit, for luncheon, but I shall return soon! 😉November 4, 2016 at 1:52 pm #20319@aella @overcomer Yeah, I’ve got to eat as wall. I’ll probably be back for story planning. I edited 6 pages. Thanks!

Great job!!!
@overcomer
I’m back, if you’re still here 🙂November 4, 2016 at 3:03 pm #20322Yep, still going strong-ish … @aella . I’ll stop writing in 28 minutes, but I plan to pick it up again later on in the evening.
Good for you, @dragon-snapper !
November 4, 2016 at 3:34 pm #20326I’m done, for now, @aella . I did alright. The final version of my essay is beginning to take shape.
How’s your writing going?
November 4, 2016 at 3:41 pm #20330@overcomer
Hey, progress! 😀Eh, it’s coming… There’s a lot of forced writing in this chapter, so I’ll be seeing what I need to flesh out/replace tomorrow mainly, I can tell. I am getting my characters developed more in these chapters, which is nice, but I wish I knew I wasn’t writing trash. *shrugs* oh well, by the end of November, I’ll have a very rough draft of a novel, and THAT is going to be helpful. 🙂
November 4, 2016 at 4:10 pm #20335Don’t worry, @aella ! Bad writing is just good writing in progress. 😉 🙂 You’re doing great!
Also, don’t be afraid to quit (or do your own thing) later on if you find the NANOWRIMO schedule is making you into an “angry writer,” what I call myself when word counts become more important than my story and my writing suffers (and I suffer) because of it, and I start hating writing time … not that that’s ever happened. 😉
No one will think the less of you, least of all me. 🙂 So don’t sweat it.

@overcomer @aella @dragon-snapper If you guys are still writing I’ll join in.

Thanks, man. 🙂 I have a hard time getting myself to accept anything less than perfection, often, and this story is one that I really care about, so it is getting harder.Definitely something that has stayed in the back of my head, and will continue to stay there. I’m not gonna let anything steal my writing joy. If it ends up not being a good usage of time/writing, then I will, most definitely, quit… It’s just those thirty minutes of writing when I get the good stuff in, that I’m continuing for, at this point. This story is dying to get out, and it is easier to convince my family that I’m not just wasting my time if more people are doing it, but I’m debating about dropping down to 1,000 a day, and being content with that, and continue into December, but as of now, I shall push through, at least the first week, then I’ll re-evaluate how it is going. 🙂 Thank you and thank you and thank you for your kind words <3 Not sweating it… *turns thermostat* NO SWEATING. 😉
