Nanowrimo, again
Nov. 9th, 2009 01:33 pmWell, the good news is that I'm a quarter of the way through! I'm still a bit ahead of schedule, and haven't yet experienced the "argh argh argh hate this what do I write now?!" feeling that usually hits. Maybe the fourth time's the charm?
The BAD news is that I'm a quarter of the way through, and the main character's just reached town. In LOTR terms, this is like the hobbits making it to Bree. This could turn out to be a 100,000 word story *easily*, especially if I keep getting distracted by the supporting characters like the dead first love (though her POV is so fun) and the sorta-villain werewolf I just orphaned (though the parallels that are there between her and her mentor, and Biff McStudlypants and the Main Character give me warm fuzzies)...which means it would be about 49,998 words more than I'm mentally prepared for.
Oy.
