Super Busy

Hello again everyone! How are you?

I feel like I've been neglecting you all but I've been so busy with school, life, and of course NaNoWriMo.

Speaking of NaNoWriMo; I was speeding along so that I thought I'd be done on the 21st or the 22nd but I've lost steam. I'm at around 43,100 and it's getting harder each day to produce even 1,000 words. But I'm still determined to do it! As long as I don't let myself fall behind, I'll be fine. :)

How is everyone else doing that's participating in NaNo? Are your word counts where they should be, are you behind, or maybe your novel's already done?

I just recently discovered an amazing artist who's inspired my writing even more, Imogen Heap. I don't know where I've been, I know she's been around for a while. Anyway, if you haven't heard her music I encourage you to listen to it.

The first week of December I will try to have my first chapter of my NaNo novel, Old World Underground, posted for everyone to read. I really would love some feedback.

Also, I've started a new WIP; working title "Color the Wind."

Have a wonderful day and happy writing! <3

NaNoWriMo progress and playlist

Hey all!
My NaNo novel is coming along great so far. My characters have taken me in a slightly different direction than originally planned but I'm confident its the right one. Currently I'm nearing 35k and hope to be closer to 40k by the end of today. We'll see how that goes. ;)
Anyway, I've noticed others posting playlists to go along with their novels and I thought it was a great idea since music inspires my writing.
So here's my list for Old World Underground:

Band of Horses-"No One's Gonna Love You"
Paramore-"Monster"
Jack Johnson-"Flake"
Christina Perri-"Backwards"
Jack Johnson-"You and Your Heart"
Metric-"Ending Start"
The Black Keys-"Have Love Will Travel"
Paramore-"Stop This Song (Lovesick Melody)"
Broken Bells-"October"

Day 7

Hello everyone! How are you doing?

I just wanted to update everyone on my NaNoWriMo progress. So far, I think I'm doing great. I'm ahead of my goal anyway. I'm closing up on 14,000 words and plan to have at least 15,000 by the end of the day.

I've always been the type of writer who'll go back on her work every few minutes to edit and re-edit. So this experience has been really good for me. I've turned off my inner-editor and just let my story flow from my fingertips. I'm finding it to be freeing, actually.

I hope everyone else is making their goals and enjoying their writing. Good luck to you all!

I'll update everyone on my progress in another week.

Happy writing! :)
