I wrote maybe one paragraph today. I re-read everything again this morning with fresh eyes and felt like puking, so I'm not sure if I'm going to keep at it or just chalk it.
I wrote for four hours straight this afternoon, getting completely caught up to where I should be since I wrote NOTHING yesterday. I feel super accomplished, lol. And my story is finally going places. And it's not even completely awful!
Writing dust for everyone else! I felt the same way yesterday, but I woke up this morning with my inspiration returned. Keep going!!! (*)

9,618 right now. I'm about 1,200 ahead of my goal. I am trying to finish by the Monday before Thanksgiving because I know I won't be writing much that week. I can always play catch up in the last few days after Thanksgiving weekend, I suppose, but I am trying to push forward.
To everyone that feels like giving up, keep at it! This is my first attempt. I have refused to look at ANYTHING again, because I know it is awful. I do feel good to be writing instead of sitting around saying I wish I would/could write.
Are you sure you can't just push passed it kangaroo?
The timeline is just not in my favor. Baby is 10 weeks away and Nano ends in less than 4, so unless I stop feeling like I want to throw up constantly, I don't see this writing year working out. Believe me, it's not something I want to quit, as I have five completed Nanos already, but all I want to do is lay on the couch and do nothing.

I'm sorry. Well, you should go ahead and get as much rest as possible.
I just finished my writing for the day, 6,734 words. Today was the first time I struggled to make myself sit down and write, and it was a sort of boring part to my story. I'm a little worried that I'm already struggling when it's just day 4...
Hang in there, kangaroo! I had m/s until the day I delivered, and it was awful. I could barely make it through work, I can't imagine doing anything else voluntarily that required this much energy and thought!
I banged out 1,000 words earlier today and now I'm hoping to get at least another 1,000 while DH is watching football(blah). I'm hoping to be caught up and back on track by Wed this week:)
I haven't written at all today. I'm working a shift from 8-midnight, but I'm hoping to finish early and get down at least 1000 words. If not, I'm ahead of my daily goal so it won't be a total bust.
I very nearly hit my doubled quota today, just 300 words short (I need to go to bed, or I'll be dead tomorrow). I filled about 600 of those words describing how you make a barrel. Hehe, educational filler ftw!
I'm crying on the inside. Today was pretty much a black hole of time suck. I did make a very pinteresty change to my dd's room, does that count towards a word count? No? Ok, then. ::slinks away::
