Day 4: 11,708 words

....11,708 words.

I'm alive, my finger muscles have gotten weary of my constant typing, but it's so worth it.

Some questions I've been asked about NaNo, expressed in a grandiose manner for my entertainment.


WHY ARE YOU WRITING SO MUCH RIGHT NOW?

...because I want to take breaks on the weekend and not have to play catch up all month.

WHY YOU BE WRITING AT ALL?

Because it's fun. I actually enjoy writing all the time; it's one of the most rewarding experiences for me. NaNoWriMo is a perfect excuse to indulge in writing for a whole month.

YOU CRAY CRAY.

I know, I'm still reading books and catching up on Season 2 of Arrow (shameless plug).

SO YOU'RE NOT DEAD?

No, maybe a little exhausted. Super exhausted, but emotionally so happy.

...ARE YOU SURE YOU'RE NOT DEAD?

..yes.

I'M SUPER STUCK ON MY PLOT/STORY. WHAT DO I DO?

Keep in mind where you want your story to wind up; how do you want to get there? What parts are important to see? What drives your characters? Keep that in mind as you write. Feel free to have a notebook cluttered with notes, it helps.

WHAT IF I DON'T KNOW HOW I WANT MY STORY TO END?

Then keep writing, FOREVER.

WHEN IS NANOWRIMO OVER AGAIN?

November 30.

SO I'LL GET BOOK BLOG POSTS WHEN THIS IS ALL DONE?

Maybe. Probably. Yes.

WILL I GET ANY BLOG POSTS THIS MONTH?

Ehhhh....most likely. I have some blog posts in the works from before NaNoWriMo started, I just have to get up the will power to finish them.

GET ON IT. I HAVE BOOK NEEDS.

No.

WHAT????

No.

....SERIOUSLY, WHAT????

No.

IS IT WEIRD TO KIND OF INTERVIEW YOURSELF?

A bit, but it helps that I've gotten into strange conversations about NaNoWriMo. Yep.

.....

........


I'll just go back to writing now.... yeah....

Happy writing!
