My story is keeping me up at night

[fatamy]

I have a 5 month old baby, so she wakes me up to eat between 1-3am. She goes back down easily, but MY PLOT WILL NOT STOP CHURNING IN MY MIND! 
I was up from 2-2:15 feeding her then 2:15-3:00 thinking up plot points and scenes in the story. 
Good! But not good because I'm not writing stuff down and ya know, sleep.

I liked that because you have so many ideas, not because you're not getting sleep! I always think of things at the worst times, like when I'm in the shower or driving, and then never write them down. Hopefully when you start writing in November it will all come back!

I seem to remember you being sick & pregnant last NaNo. I hope this year is easier, even with the baby. You've already come a long way from no characters and no ideas a few weeks ago!

Great memory Yes, last year I wanted to die and didn't get far. 

I am pretty excited about these churning thoughts this year... some years it just feel like I have nothing and I'm trying to make the story happen rather than just write what's already in my mind. If that makes sense!
