NaNoWriMo Day 2
Well, the second day of NaNoWriMo is coming to a close. I am a little over my targeted goal for today. Not as much as I’d like, but my goal is to write better this year, even if I never actually get to be ‘ahead’. While this is a rough draft, it is still something I would like to not have to make massive plot changes with.
How are you doing so far on NaNo? I had intended to put up a pep talk on Halloween, but Movie Maker won’t recognize the video format. Don’t ask, long story.
So then today, I got that all ironed out. Used a new digital video recorder and taped about 5 minutes worth of clips to put together for a day 2 pep talk, only to have the whole folder disappear. I have no idea where it went and I was too frustrated to keep looking for it.
Tomorrow is a new day, and I will work on a recorded pep talk with tips and maybe before November is over, I can actually PUBLISH it. LOL

I’m not hitting my word count goals, but I’m writing, which I *believe* is the whole goal of NaNoWriMo.
I’m having a lot of fun planning out the book and getting pieces written and exploring what works best for me as a writer. I’ve been meaning to write the novel I’m working on for nearly a year now, and it feels good to actually sit down and get to it. I am still hopeful that I’ll be able to make the 50,000 mark, which will mean I’ll have to get a kick in the pants here pretty soon… I like your writer’s kit–perhaps I should make something similar to carry around with me for help and inspiration. I look forward to seeing your pep talk–I might be in need of one soon!
