I just broke 20k.

It's time to break out the happy dance for 20K!!





Photobucket


Have I mentioned I completely love my story? Switching it to the young adult genre was quite possibly the best idea I have ever had. I get my main character. I've been with this chick for two and a half years and I finally get her. All I had to do was kill her best friend.

If you hear me say I hate my novel, and I hate writing in the next 20 days, please remind me of this post.

Tip: Bribe yourself. The other day I told myself for every 10 pages I wrote, I could watch an episode of Grey's Anatomy. Tonight I told myself if I could write 3K in the next two hours I could eat dinner instead of a health shake. I wrote that 3K EXACTLY with 10 minutes to spare!

Other Tip: If you have a friend named Sab who is trying to help you with your weight loss, do not announce on Twitter that you're eating ice cream for dinner as your reward. Because when you do, that's about the time she'll be on Twitter and she will nail your butt for it! And she will do it rightfully so.

So what about you? How are you doing so far in NaNoWriMo?

  1. I'm glad I dont have a friend named Sab!

    And you can now nail me back because I'm miserably failing at NaNo, because school is eating me alive. Quite literally. Gag!
