      My third year in the trenches. My only advice is to plant your butt in the seat and write. Don't worry so much about getting it right. There'll be time for editing in December.

        Re: NaNoWriMo

        A mere 855 words from yesterday, but I had to wrap up some other business before I could start writing. I'm rusty at novel style, and I'm sure I'll get faster as I adjust. And when I can write on the weekend. It's one thing to come home from work and write when you're not facing an intense deadline and another thing when you have to shake free the stress and then jump into being creative AND quick.

            I'm up to about 3,800 words, but I have the whole day free. I feel like I'm finally settling into a rhythm. I write faster on weekends, removed from the post-work stress. If anyone's interested, I've posted the beginning on my blog. Keep in mind that it is just a quickly written draft.

              Okay,

              Getting into a grove with my story. But for some reason the "just don't worry about it and write crap" vibe for the first draft of this novel is harder to do than with the screenplays.

              But I'm up to 6836 words and thinking maybe next weekend I'll post an excerpt.

                    Re: NaNoWriMo

                    2943 words.

                    Wish it was 3000, but reached the end of an important scene.

                    Might try to reach 3k later.

                    Keep it going, everyone! I find it encouraging that I am not alone

                      Though I fully admit it's hard to keep pressing ahead since I'm sticking on some act II story beats.

                          I feel like I'm in the novel's voice pretty well now, and I think I've finally managed to let go of the editor part of me that keeps wanting to go back and make changes. I hadn't developed the characters enough in my mind going into this, and that's slowed me down, but I feel better about them.

                          Full speed ahead!

                                12,054 words! Or 66 pages. Er, that's writing a screenplay instead of a novel.
