To be honest, it seems like all of us in the group are really struggling this year. Struggling to find time; to stay motivated; to juggle personal lives, work and writing.
Here's the thing:
That's absolutely okay.
Do not feel guilty (guilt-free zone, remember?). Feel proud of whatever you have done, even if it's only 1,000 words in two weeks. I would hate for you to feel discouraged, or to feel that you have failed in any way if you haven't stuck to your word count goals. Celebrate whatever you have done, and be proud of it. Whatever you have written simply didn't exist two weeks ago!
For the full list of group participants, go here.
Sara talks about having a loose outline and how it helps her to stay motivated.
Mervat has had a really rough week, as difficult events in her personal life have pushed Nanowrimo into the background - I know she would appreciate it if you popped by to say a few kind words.
R. talks about warm-ups for writing - purchasing a beautiful new notebook and starting research!
Rosalind talks about the 'second week blues.'
Bec talks about falling off the Nano-wagon (been there!).
Katherine is making great progress on her Nanowrimo project despite working night shifts and being absolutely exhausted.
Have a wonderful weekend, everyone, and remember to focus on what you HAVE achieved.
