I am still behind. In fact, I’m very behind. I’m at 16,040 words when I should be at 23,333.
I predicted on Monday that I wouldn’t be able to write anything until Friday; this wasn’t true at all. I wrote about 2700 words during the week. It’s not much, but it’s a lot better than my prediction.
Unfortunately, next week, and the week after (Thanksgiving week), AND the week after that (first week of December) are full of homework, studying for the 2nd midterm and then studying for finals, and also finishing up this semester’s senior design project. That isn’t going to leave much time for personal writing.
If I manage to get to 25,000 words, I’m calling that a win. Hopefully, I’ll manage to write more than that.
…Interestingly, if I counted all of my typed homework and lab reports, I’d be right on track.
Good luck, fellow NaNo! Hang in there. 🙂
