NaNo: Day 03
Nov. 3rd, 2011 10:54 pm(collapse) Today was not as wonked out as yesterday with the long calls, but I still feel like I could have gotten more done. Which is completely wrong because I'm writing way more than usual daily for NaNo, so it's probably just frustration talking.
Frustration talks really loudly, just so you know.
When it comes to personal drama, Richard finally got out of jail. He doesn't look good. I think he lost about 70 pounds? :\ But anyway, he's back, things are back to normal. Cat still hasn't popped out a litter, but I have a horrible feeling that she's nesting on me. D: I swear, if I wake up covered in afterbirth I'll end up thinking I'm Tony Stark (ALL THE WARNINGS EVER ON THAT LINK).
And I will also call in sick to work. Because ew.
Today I reached a grand total of 15,211 words, so I wrote 5,027 words. And they don't feel like enough. Yeah. This is pretty good because it means that when I inevitably skimp on the weekend, I won't really be falling behind at all, woo!
Mostly today I had trouble making myself slog forward. It felt like nothing happened, even though plenty actually did. It just happened by way of talking instead of exploding. I may add some action soon just for the sake of it. I actually have an excuse for "random monster attacks New York, OH NOES". Not that I really need one (thank you, comics!), but it's nice to be able to point at it later and say "it ties in here, see". But the fun starts soon, so maybe I'll be able to keep extraneous boom to a minimum.
Anywho, since I wrote so much today, that brought me past another three daily markers, so three excerpts!
( Spoilers, you know the drill )
