NaNoWriMo: Day 1

NaNoWriMo Day 1

Wow, that was an amazing first day! Whether I was participating in sprints on twitter or word wars in hangouts on Google with fellow NaNos it was a day absolutely full of writing. For those who don’t remember the daily goal for NaNoWriMo is 1,667 words. Through sheer insanity and disregard for all else but writing I wrote 17,546 words. 17,546! That’s over 1/3 of the whole goal! O.O I honestly have no clue how I churned out so many but it was so much fun doing so. The words were flying out and though there will be an insane amount of editing that needs to be done before I’d ever let anyone else even glimpse at it I think I actually wrote rather well.

I’m excited for day two! I’m not sure how much writing I will do today though it definitely will not be on par with day one, that was just crazy excitement and not doing ANYTHING besides writing for almost the entire day. I will try to get in a few thousand words though so we shall see. ^.^ Let me know if you are participating and if so how you are doing so far!

Also, if you follow my blog regularly then you know that I was supposed to have a review up yesterday. I’m sorry! NaNoWriMo madness overtook me! During this month my posts may be a bit more erratic outside of the daily NaNo updates which I promise I will do. I will still participate in my usual memes (Stacking the Shelves, Sunday Post and Waiting on Wednesday) but the reviews will mostly be whenever I can get to them. So some days you will just have the NaNo update and others you might have that, a meme AND a review! It’ll be fun I swear. ^.^ Thank you so much for your patience while I try this novel writing thing out. I really do appreciate it as well as all the support I have received thus far, it means so much. 🙂
