Writing: NaNoWriMo - Week Four! (and other news)

My word count has surpassed 50k! I validated my novel at 50014 words but I have been adding to it and I am currently around 56k. It is incredible to be able to have the time and write every day. I know that I am lucky I don't have a busy schedule like a lot of people, it's just me and my writing and some studying most of the time.

In other news, I have almost finished Christmas Shopping! I do need to buy my Mum a few more things though. I treated myself to a Pandora bracelet and made my Step Mum hide it so I wouldn't wear it before December 25th.

That's it for now!

Writing: NaNoWriMo - Week Three!

This week has been really productive! I have been writing at least 1000 words per day which isn't quite the daily word goal (1667) but it has been balancing out. I am currently on 35,047 words! Again, I stress that this is the highest amount I have ever written for one single project.

My storyline is going well, I know where I want my story to go and generally how the characters are going to get where they need to be.

I have been watching SO many YouTube videos of everyone's progress. I love virtual write ins and writing sprints. I created a Twitter account to keep track of my writing counts.

That's it for now!

Writing: NaNoWriMo - Week One and Two!

I thought I'd give a little update on my writing project!

I didn't post on Sunday because I was so busy with some personal issues and writing. My total word count on 5th was 5,052. I am really proud of myself because this is my first real NaNoWriMo where I've had a proper storyline and this is the most I've ever written.

I'll tell you a tiny bit about my story. It's about Piper and her experience in a mental hospital after a suicide attempt.

At the end of today (12th), my total word count is 13,202 so far. There's still 6 hours to go!

How are you all getting on?

That's it for now,
