So my first day and NaNoWriMo showed me just how "fixed" my computer is. I got somewhere over 100 words. They were crappy words admittedly, but the start of a novel often is strained (That's . . .

Most people traveling overnight on the train sleep. Not Gideon! So, what did Gideon and I do to keep busy? M&M sculptures, of course!

Here's another method that I've found to be very useful that utilizes a common household item: Index Cards.

Day six brought me no new obstacles thankfully and I made some decent progress. I did, however have to skip the funeral scene and do some research on Irish funerary customs. The funeral still has yet . . .

Day fourteen brought me more substantial progress than I've seen in a while. It also brought the seed of the budding romance.. that despite my better judgement is being allowed to happen.

Day 20 brought a shameful amount of progress - just a meager 802 words were written earning me a nice big red block on my progress chart.
Today was a tough day. I had set two goals to reach by midnight. . . .

Day 22 brought more slow progress. This was in part due to the fact that I was elsewhere other than at home on my PC for some of today.
Even still I managed to write 1,195 words today. Not bad, I suppose. . . .

Day 24 was sluggish for me. If I had been feeling better I might have been able to finish NaNo, but alas I did not. I did manage to write 922 words for the day, so that was enough to gain me the . . .

This was done earlier today. As always all feedback is welcomed. To me, there's a duality to the meaning. It sybolizes two very different things. The image only represents one of these meanings.

Day seven brought no massive issues and was one of the few normal days I was able to write for this week.

Day eight brought no huge obstacles (Thank goodness!) and I was able to boost my word count and get ahead of the game a bit.
I'm now at the easy and fun part of the novel. I presume that the rest . . .

Do you have portions of your novel that you hate? Portions that you know you will delete in editing that are taking up vaulable word count space?

Today was a slow day. It seems when I take too much time away from writing I lose my momentum and such. As a result it's harder to get back into the swing of things, so to speak. Today brought a little . . .
