Tonight was pure torture
Trying to get through 2500 words was so difficult tonight... I actually, at one point, thought that maybe I'm not cut out to be a writer. Then I remembered I need an income, and well, work is work, what can I say. This is at least something I can do here at home while I'm not working anywhere else.After just 600 words I was thinking about my dire need for a vacation.
"Just one night off," she said, wistfully looking at her pathetic word count.
"No," the editor said, "You must persevere. Be strong, go forth, hit the keys."
"I don't know if I will make it this time," she said, but nevertheless, started writing more trivial passages to add to the scene.
Eventually it all took off in an interesting direction, she got interested in the task, and amazingly made it through 2509 words... just nine words over the nightly goal. Then she cashed it in for the night, recorded the word count on the NaNoWriMo site, updated her blog, and said, "Good night."
New total: 26227 words. More than 50% done! Yay!!
