#nanofree day 30: Finishing off the month with a relatively modest 2660 words written.
Which by my count gives me a total of 63418 words written in the month of November.
I'm sure for pros that's just a light month, but for me it's not half-bad. Calling it a win!
#nanofree day 29: 3175 words written. We'll see how the month finishes out tomorrow!
#nanofree day 28: we're in the final haul here. 2311 words written today. See how many I can get in for this final weekend.
#nanofree day 27: only 1746 words written, but I did have the whole meal and family thing to do today.
I am at about 55,000 words for the month though, so either way I'm doing all right.
#nanofree day 26: 3769 words written. Which is a step down from the pace I had been doing over the weekend, but I am trying to figure out an ending scene that is effectively a post-it note saying "IDK, end goes here or something."
#nanofree day 25: 4054 words written. By my tally so far, I'm within a few hundred words of 50,000 for the month. See if I can get over that threshold tomorrow.
#nanofree day 24: 3688 words written. A step down from what I was doing over the weekend, but Mondays are busy days for me. We'll see how the rest of the week goes...the end of the month is coming up fast!
#nanofree day 23: 6394 words written.
I haven't been this locked in since I sat down to write Wild Rose. We'll see how long I can keep this up.
"IDK, I'll just write whatever and see how I do."
Which led to Day 22 of #nanofree: wrote 5407 words in a day. Don't know where this level of productivity came from, but why not, I'm feeling motivated again.
#nanofree day 21: 2629 words written.
My normal writing time has been getting taken up with life stuff, so now I write things down during downtime at work. So it goes, learn to adapt and find free time wherever you can.
#nanofree day 20: 1480 words written. Hard to concentrate on a single project, but glad to be able to keep up momentum and write every day.
#nanofree day 19: wrote 1441 words in Matryoshka and another 1330 words in my lore document. Not a bad day, all told.
#nanofree day 18: wrote 1922 words.
Me: do the words count if they're in a lore document I'm writing in support of the main WIP?
The manager of nanofree, who is also me:
#nanofree day 17: only 538 words in Matryoshka, but I have a new direction.
I generally go into a story with a vague idea and let the plan show up as I go through the first draft. That plan is slowly becoming clearer.
#nanofree day 16, wrote 712 words in a different WIP to try to clear my head.
Busy with other things today, but powering through to try and get something done in the writing scene.
#nanofree day 15: only wrote 353 words in the Skyless WIP.
Apparently I'm at the stage of my life where weekends are _less_ fun, because they're when I play catch-up on everything I can't get to during the week.
#nanofree day 14. Wrote just 637 words in Matryoshka, but that was the ending scene...now I just have to write all that stuff in the middle to _get_ to the ending.
Also wrote 1330 words in the Skyless WIP, taking some notes and trying the Chapter 1 opening for the nth time.
#nanofree day 13: wrote 1714 words in Matryoshka. A first pass on a very difficult scene...I suspect I'm going to have to rewrite it in the future.
#nanofree day 12: Wrote 1645 days in the Matryoshka WIP.
Would have written more, but I want to be able to sleep, and I've gotten up to that scene.
You know. _That_ scene.
#nanofree day 11. Tried to get back in the saddle after a rough day yesterday.
1218 words in the Matryoshka story. Realized I don't have to write sequentially, so I skipped ahead to this scene.
#nanofree Day 10: well I was going to get a bad day eventually. Just didn't have a chance to sit down today.
Just 119 words written today, all in the Matryoshka WIP.
#nanofree day 9: wrote 1667 words in Matryoshka, and 75 in Skyless. (it was just one bit of descriptive text).
Been in a daze all day, so I'm counting this as a win.
#nanofree day 8, put in 1568 words in the Matryoshka WIP.
This was a tough one, since the day started early and I was writing half in a daze at the end. But it's important to keep working.
The challenge of meeting a writing goal isn't the total word count, it's facing the days when you know you're slow and you just want to close the story and play video games.
Pushing through. 1284 words written today in #nanofree, split between Skyless and Matryoshka WIPs.
#nanofree day 6: another one of those days where "stuff kept coming up."
1335 words in the Skyless project, and finished another project I'm not counting words on.
#nanofree day five.
Kind of a weird day, couldn't quite focus on one project today. But ended up doing 1600 words in my Skyless WIP. Writing about someone drowning on a boat, tons of fun.
#nanofree day 4: Doing all right, wrote the first big action scene in Matryoshka. 1681 words today.
#nanofree day 3, was able to focus up a little bit more today.
Matryoshka: wrote 1224 words.
#nanofree day 2: With my schedule, it's really a shame that the first two days of this #writing test for myself happen on a weekend. Hopefully I will be more productive during the weekdays.
Skyless: 227 words written
Matryoshka: 579 words written
First day of #nanofree was a little rocky as I had obligations to deal with, but got some stuff done.
Skyless: 842 words written
Matryoshka: 542 words written
