NaNoWriMo – Day 6

It’s day 6 of NaNoWriMo and I can imagine I’m starting to annoy everyone with just how well I’m doing. Only yesterday I got an apology message for the way someone had approached the news that I had already hit the 20,000 word mark. It’s getting worse for everyone else because today I hit 25,000. That’s right, I’m halfway through the challenge in just six days. I have found it obnoxiously easy and I am not gloating because I know it is down to the fact I’m essentially writing my own diary. How did I feel? Great. Just write that a lot. Despite the way I am going about this I am still here to support my friends who are writing actual proper things and will continue to hit up The Alex once a week for our meet-up sessions. It’s so good to meet so many people who are trying the project out for their first year. The meeting we had on Sunday was a real eye opener. At the moment I feel like I’ll never stop so it’s grounding to see people who aren’t taking to it in the same way I am this year. It’s excellent in fact. Their writing will be a damn sight more interesting than mine because they’ve thought about it whereas mine just falls out of me at a rate of knots.
The NaNoWriMop website is estimating that I’ll finish on November 12th. I could fit in another book before the end of the month then right?
