NaNoWriMo Day 9
Welcome to my little experiment, where I lift the curtain on my writing process during NaNoWriMo 2023 in an effort to feel less alone. If you’re also doing NaNoWriMo, feel free to add me as a buddy!
daily summary 📅
Mentally, I was too spent to hit my word count. Thankfully I’ve banked up enough words that I’ll still be on track for tomorrow, but sometimes, we all need a day off.
daily process ⏱️
8:28AM. Dropped Castor off at daycare, dropped Bear at work, so it’s just me and Pollux dorg today. I’m so tired; I stayed up way too late last night watching episodes of Dollhouse. I may need to nap t his morning. After I have this can of Monster.
3:36PM. Ugh, did some social media stuff this morning, made lunch, and decided to take a quick nap…only it turn out so quick. Oops.
I’ve decided to move writing spots from my office to the living room to see if that doesn’t help. Put Dollhouse on in the background. [redacted word vomit]
6:35PM. Jesus it feels so late because it’s so dark.
Anyway, 186 words. Today may not be happening in terms of writing. I’m mentally spent and it’s not just because I was up so late. Even after a 3 hours nap and an afternoon can of Monster and I still feel tired.
Maybe I’ll just scribble down some thoughts on chapter 3 and then call it a night and go to bed early to recover. [redacted word vomit]
8:13PM. 680 words. Yep, we’re done for the night.
That’s Day 9 of NaNoWriMo done! How about y’all? Any successes? Failures?
