NaNoWriMo Day #1
I had a doctor's appointment this morning that required some prep, so I only got down about 600 words during my early morning session. I did a little better this afternoon with another 2K. The toughest part was falling back into the rhythms of writing in third person; after spending the last month writing two books in first it felt a little weird.
I love the story, and it was fun coming out of the starting gate. At the same time, I feel like I have to keep this one on a tight leash and avoid the temptation to to over-write or over-think it. It's very clear right now, and I'd like it to stay that way.
Today's Stats:
Wordcount: 2,607
Pages: 15
Time: 6:30am-7:30am, 11:00am-2:30pm
Sessions: 1 @ 1 hour; 1 @ 3 hours + 30 minute break.
