Hello! This is
Saturday of Week 2 of NaNoWriMo. To be on target for 50K by November 30th,
your word count goal for the end of today is: 20004
I hope you are still writing and still excited. It has been
an odd week here in the USA. The Election happened and there are protests and
other events going on. It has been a big distraction for many people. Except
for the night of the Election itself, I have been able to hunker down and get
my words in. Two of the reasons I am getting my words in are 1) I am hosting
two Write-Ins every weekend at the local library. Whether anyone else shows up,
I’m there, my computer is there, I might as well write. Today I didn’t even get
2000 words in during the Write-In but that’s OK. I got words on the computer.
It’s all good. 2) I belong to a Facebook Writers Group. They have official
sprints every Sunday. Folks will also reach out and say “I need some sprints.
Who wants to sprint with me?” I did sprints with two other folks in a chatroom
yesterday for an hour. It was great.
If you feel stuck – do something different. Write out of
order. Write from the POV of another character. Interview your characters.
Rewrite the beginning. Change the ending. Start in the middle and change what
happens after. JUST KEEP WRITING.
Your affirmation for today is: My writing is a stream of
feeling that flows from my heart to my reader’s heart.
Write bunches, write with joy!
