NaNoWriMo 2010 - Day 7

Day 7 - 23 days remaining

You never have to change anything
you got up in the middle of the night to write.

- Saul Bellow



Today brings us to the end of the first week, Nano Writer! Your word count should be better than 11,667... How did you do?

The weekend is often a good time to catch up. Don't let yourself fall too far behind the daily word count! Remember, this is not the time to throw anything out!

This is also the night when in the US, we set our clocks back an hour. What would you do (or plan to do) with an extra hour, Nano Writer? For me, I've finally arrived at the scene where the protagonist has come face to face with the story's antagonist, he just doesn't know it yet. I have no choice but to keep writing to see how it all comes out ;-)

Whatever your plans, remember to keep writing!

I'm catching up! 10,033 words, and my main character is rolling behind tables to avoid bullets, sword in hand (and yes, I did write the part where he unsheathed it yesterday, I was just so sleepy I didn't remember it). It's an action scene - in the second chapter! This chapter alone is 6,035 words long. O_o might have to cut it in two later on...

Aaaaand... I made it! 12,176 words! That's 3,424 words I wrote today. And I don't even have the advantage of Daylight Saving Time giving me an extra hour, because it's summer in my country.

My main character kicked ass and took names, and in the middle of being congratulated, a man on fire suddenly showed up. I'm on a roll! This also looks like a good spot to take a breath in. My eyes are burning.

An outstanding day! You're on fire ;-)
