I’m a little antsy today. It’s day 5 of NaNoWriMo & although I started day one off with a bang, writing 4002 words, days 2, 3 ,& 4 were a washout. I had gigs, I had a boyfriend to entertain (& he’s been neglected A LOT lately, poor baby). Today I have a mix of students & free time, & although there are some things I’d like to get done, writing is a priority. I’d like to get back on track!
I started the day with yoga, meditation, & journaling. Then I had an awesome pile of gluten free pancakes, possibly the best recipe I’ve found online yet. http://www.elanaspantry.com/silver-dollar-pancakes/
The tea? Hugo’s Organic Morning’s Journey. I’m on my 2nd cup (not a resteep, I don’t feel that it resteeps all that well) of this bright & yet dark brew. Ahhh, yes…I feel the caffeine level rising…good morning, all!

Don’t worry about falling behind. It’s a lot easier to catch up than you think so long as you don’t try to do it all in one go. I did Camp NaNoWriMo this summer and was about 10K behind at one point and still managed to win (in the nick of time) by slowly catching up. No need to stress over it. :)
Thanks everyone! Last year I managed to stay on top of it a little more, but I’m almost up to 9000 now! So I feel like I’m back on track, and yes, we will win NaNo!!!
I’ve probably posted it that it’s becoming tedious, but a writing buddy and I are strict adherents to “Write something, even if it’s stupid. You can always edit stupid.” Keep hammering! :)
That’s right, Mathis! I adhere to the same principal, and if I can’t come up with details of some place, thing, or whatever I’ll insert something like <figure this sh*t out & describe it> or something like that. It’s better to leave an than to lose my momentum.
Congrats! We will win NaNo :)
Great! Keep writing and don’t look back.

Obviously, getting the thought out is more important to me than editing. Meant to say …posted it so often …. ay-yi-yi. I think I may just take my weary brain to bed :)
