Nanowrimo 2015 is already underway and I am currently behind my target goal by about 3,000 words. This is not good. I can partially blame the fact that I spent most of yesterday finishing a different project, and I am not counting those words towards my Nano goal.
Even though I'm behind, I have been writing daily (I already was, but now I can praise myself for doing it) and I really think that it will help me finish my second book faster. If I manage to hit the Nano goal of 50,000 words by the end of the month then I should be close to halfway finished with my book. That would be a remarkable feat.
It is much harder to work on something that I care about because it means I have to pay attention to the plot and how I write and what I am leading towards. I can't bring myself to just throw words at the page and see what happens. It might be good if I did that, but I suspect that it would result in a fairly bad book. And editing takes forever already.
I will keep posting updates and rants and stuff this month because I should. Maybe I'll even give out some spoilers or other interesting non-spoiler information. Like Rowan's new love interest (maybe) or the fact that some people I supposedly killed off are in fact still alive. So yeah, keep checking in.
