OK, so I've got 3,101 words written today and yet, I'm still stuck on chapter 2. I'm finally learning that the first draft is just a first draft an most of what I've written so far is going to be deleted anyway, so why bother crying about it? Plus, I'm going to post snippets of the book on Smashwords this weekend.
So what should I do, seeing as I still can't stop working on my novel? The reverse nano method isn't something for the casual writer; it's for writers who want to get serious about their writing. That's why I'm going to use this method for NaNoWriMo from now on.
(Camp NaNoWriMo and JuNoWriMo are still up for debate, as I haven't made my decision regarding the use of that method for those projects yet.)
So as I close out this blog post, I must do the total word count (since I forgot to do it yesterday):
Word count: 9,663 words. I must be doing something right, as last year on this date, I wrote 8,000 words. But that's for another blog post.
