November 7 at 2:07pm Irritated. Oh wait, this is most days. Wishing sometimes to just run away. Just don't know where I would run away to. In turn, I feel down. Eventually, things will be better. Eventually.
November 7 at 3:22pm Can I hit 15,000 words today? We will see. Oh, and I'm at 13,590 word count at the moment. Like · Reply · 1 · November 7 at 3:23pm With 638 words done for the day. Like · Reply · 1 · November 7 at 3:23pm
November 7 at 4:23pm Watching some football and writing. That's my day today and will probably be the same tomorrow. Right now watch some crimson colored team and whoever the tigers are.
November 7 at 8:27pm Waiting on my computer to restart so I can go back to writing. Okay so it's restarting/updating only to undo changes when it finishes. Yeah this is why I want to throw it some times. Argh!
November 7 at 10:10pm Almost to 1000 words for the day. Trying to get more than that, but not sure. There's always tomorrow along with some more football on tv. NaNo page tells me I need to write 1,504 words a day to finish on time. I think I can get it done!
November 7 at 11:34pm Officially over 14,000 words! Yay! Trying to get another few hundred in before going to bed. If I can keep my eyes open that is.
Yesterday at 12:15am 276 words from 15,000 word count for NaNo. I'm going to get there before I go to bed. Once I hit that I will be getting some shut eye for the night. Going go curl up in my bed, in my blanket and be warm for the night. Just need to hit 15,000 words. Wish me luck and not falling asleep before those last 276 words. And good night, world. I hit 15,000, 15,029 to be exact right now. More updates on my progress as I hit more milestones with this year's NaNo.
Yesterday at 12:52pm Trying to decide on my word count for the day. The amount I need to do per day to finish on time according to my NaNo stats page is 1,517, but I think I need to aim for more. Technically since I wrote past midnight I have 542 for the day so far. So my amount needs to be more than that. I want to try and get I'm thinking of trying to get 2,000 words today. I think that should be my goal. Not including the 542 already done. Wish me luck on getting to what would be in the end 2542 words for the day.
Yesterday at 1:05pm I will not say anything. Mostly because it's like talking to a wall. I will not say anything. Just sit here write and watch the Steelers play. Oh, but there is so much I could say, but I will hold in my Irish temper. I will hold it in and save it for another time.
15 hrs Haven't reached my goal for today yet of 2000 words. I'm at 1463 at the moment for the day. Still have some more to write. Not sure what it is, but this book is coming to me more quickly than the others had so far. Not sure why, but I like it. And I added 3 more books to this to make a collection. All stand alone books. They just all need real titles. And a name for the collection. Thankfully, I have plenty of time to figure them out.
15 hrs 1742 words for the day. Not the 2000 words I wanted, well, 2500, but I'll take it. Only need 1465 tomorrow to stay on track to finish on time. Now it's bedtime. Night!
** 1 - I am not sure that she understands that Facebook posts don't count. 2 - No - that's not all of her posts since November 7th. I cherry picked.

Really good writing is and has always been about quantity over quality. Do those 15,000 words have to mean a damn thing when you're done? Absolutely not!

LOL. One of my absolute best friends in the entire world does NaNo, and I wouldn't be interested in knowing even her daily word count, let alone hourly. Does Boring really think anyone wants to know?! (Then again, she assumes a wide audience for her books, soooo there is something amiss here in general.)
A COLLECTION. Whoever gets me for SS, yooou know what I waaaant!
As somebody who writes a 500-1,000-word piece a few times a week, and a 4-7K-word piece a few times a year, this is freaking painful to read. I mean, I set goals for myself for daily and longer-term stories (I've got three pieces going for this week and would like to get 350-500 words written on each today, lol), but good God, I keep my internal mental tracking INTERNAL.
Although if she did that, she wouldn't be Boring McWindbag.
