It’s the end of NaNoWriMo week two, and I feel I’ve made pretty good progress. At the beginning of the week, me and my boyfriend when to Quentin Tarantino’s Cinema Speculation Book Tour at the Castro Theatre. It was fun to get out and enjoy the city after work instead of staying home and watching reruns.
Since I didn’t have time to write that night, I’ve been a little behind since then, but now I’m hovering at around 19k words written. I’ve already written nearly half a book, and I’m not quite sure what my characters will do or how the main conflict will resolve, but I like my momentum.
I’ve focused on making this NaNoWriMo as stress-free as possible, so I’m doing my best not to put any pressure on myself, thinking I’m writing the next big fantasy hit (that’s certainly not the case).
Drink of the night: A splash of pineapple juice and Haku Vodka
Snack: Pretzels
My latest obsession: Sweetened dried orange slices
My plans for week three? I need to sort out the antagonist of my story and decide if my main character’s going to step into a leadership role or solve a mystery, maybe both. How’s your NaNoWriMo going? Are you looking for a writing partner? HMU on nanowrimo.org; my username is alinahappyhansen 🙂
