NaNoWriMo - Update
I will be able to think of little else this month.
NaNoWriMo is taking over my life.
I had such a complicated set of dreams last night which today ended up in my novel and took the book on a completely different track.
That's what I love about writing.
The way it consumes you.
The way your characters take on a life of their own.
And the way you can immerse yourself in a completely different world.
A world you help shape.
Nothing like real life at all.
I reached 3,600 words today.
I am aiming for slow and steady.
Last night I went out for a meal with my husband and two of his sisters and wore the dress with tights instead of jeans and today I am influenced by the red and gold leaves in my garden.
This scarf was just £2.50 from a little shop in the Albert Dock, Liverpool.

ReplyDeleteI'm not writing today, just too tired, will probably not be able to go on before thursday afternoon, but can set aside the whole of thursday afternoon for it, so I guess I'll be able to catch up since I'm a pretty fast writer.
I know excactly what you talking about with charakters taking on their own life, and I love this energy they have.
Writing is an awesome thing, I'm happy I started NaNo again afer not participating last year.

I love the scarf and your tights with those beautiful dresses.
ReplyDeleteMay I also say that your hair is looking fantastic!
I'm glad to hear that NaNo is going well. I was thinking about participating this year, but unfortunately with life taking over and my computer out of commission for now, I think word-tracking may be beyond me. I may try pulling out a notebook to scribble while commuting on the bus, though.
Hi there-good luck with the writing and this scarf was a fab bargain, it looks lovely!!
ReplyDeleteGreat deal on the scarf, nice colors in the dress and tights combo.
