NaNoWriMo 2009 Day 20

Day 20 - 10 days remaining

To tend, unfailingly, unflinchingly, towards a goal, is the secret of success.

- Anna Pavlova



As to what that goal is...

As writers, we have many goals. To tell a story, certainly. To entertain, perhaps. To learn something about ourselves, always.

But as NaNoWriMo writers, our primary goal this month is to tell a story by writing 50,000 words in 30 days. Some say that we're crazy. Some days it's hard not to think that they might be right.

But we do it anyway. And we do it by writing every day, every week, word by word, sentence by sentence, unfailingly, unflinchingly, trying our best to hit our daily word counts until we cross that finish line!

Today's goal is 33,333! Excerpts? Questions? Comments? It's all good!

And remember... keep writing!

Today's excerpt was written in the wee hours of the morning today. It reads:

As much as she had seen a lot of things, seeing naked people making love still unnerved her, part of which was because she was a virgin herself. She knew how it all worked, of course, but her virginity was still intact. Unlike her siblings, the sexual act did not interest her, at least not enough to commit fully. It was often a point of amusement for Anra.

Didn't feel like writing last night, but I got words in anyway. Tonight I'm probably going to binge again and get the rest of it written.

Oh! Good luck!
