Day Two: Writing 150k Words in a Month #NaNoWriMo #My150NaNo

Apr2

It’s day two Camp NaNoWriMo and I’m still on my target for writing 150,000 words this month. I wrote a few more words than yesterday!

It’s kind of strange being on the fifth chapter and over 12k words into my novel – since I just started yesterday! It will probably feel like almost no time before I’m onto the second book of the month.

Apr2-a

Today’s writing session went about as well as yesterday’s, although my story beats weren’t quite as detailed as yesterdays, so the last couple thousand words were a bit of a challenge, but I threw in an interesting additional scene I hadn’t planned on.

I think that it’ll add a little something to story and a potential extra bad guy later down the road. Always fun when that happens.

I’m totally exhausted today, but I don’t think that has much to do with my writing. After I finished writing, I uploaded four…that’s right FOUR…books to all of the non-Amazon retailers. Not fun, but worth it because some of my readers from those other platforms have been wanting my Gone series on Kobo, etc.

So far, Kobo is the first to publish all four. I was surprised to see that Apple already published a couple of them. Usually, they take weeks.

Now back to working on draft #2 of a different story!

  1. I love your Project Targets graph. I could use something like that to keep me on track. Are you using Scrivener for writing your novels?
