Nanowriming

Check out the counter on the side there! I'm currently 11,198 words shy of the Nanowrimo goal, with 11 days remaining. Victory is in sight, but this is of course no time to rest on my laurels. I honestly can't believe that I got this far, though. I really figured that I'd get a good start but then my interest would wane, I'd take a "break" and then the story would be dead. But I'm really enjoying my novel, and that's keeping me going. Also, I've being trying to stay realistic in my goals - 2000 words a day (which is about 2 hours of writing, give or take) is very doable. I think probably a lot of people get into the problem of trying to get a great start, writing 5000 words a day or something, and then burn out.

Anyway, I'm considering posting the novel in serialized form on this blog. I think that would be a good use of the blog. In addition, I plan to go back to the CD project once Nanowrimo is over (although my novel won't actually be finished by then, I don't think, so blogging will still take a backseat).
