Bargaining with NaNoWriMo

It's November. NaNoWriMo month. That's National Novel Writing Month. It's where … maybe go to their site. They explain it better. You write a book in a month. For those that do that 12 times a year, it's okay. For the rest of us?

I'm days behind, but I'll catch up. Year before last, I discovered I could write 6,000 words in one day. So … let's see. 50,000 total words divided by 6,000 words a day equals (drum … no percussion section? Okay … flutes … flute) 8.333333333 days.

It's November 12, so I could finish this in 5.83333333 days. That leaves the last week and a half of the month to get ready for Thanksgiving!

That works.

I'll let you know how it really works out!

    It worked out fine when I released myself from the 50,000 words! I made it to 45,000 and that’s okay with me. Finding that I do better when I write each day and stay at around 2,000 each day. It’s fun to say I wrote 8,000 words in one day (that was my top day in 2014) but it’s hard on a person!
