NaNoWriMo 2016. Winning

November 30, 2016 November 30, 2016  2016, nanowrimo, novel, writing 0

Phew. I’ve done it! Again. But I need a day or two to catch my breath after the marathon and to adjust to a less pressing schedule.

NaNoWriMo 2016. 25000 words

November 14, 2016 November 14, 2016  2016, nanowrimo, novel, writing 0

Oh yeah. Half of the words done, and two days ahead of the schedule (I finished them yesterday, but didn’t have enough energy in the evening to write about it). Good job, but how I want to take a break! Not sure I will manage to keep myself going so …

NaNoWriMo 2016. 10000 words

November 6, 2016 November 6, 2016  2016, nanowrimo, novel, writing 0

One more badge earned, and so far I can’t say it was extremely hard. Yet today was not the best of my days: Dizziness and fatigue since the morning, and time was running too fast, so that in a wink of an eye it was already 3pm. Grrr! But after …

NaNoWriMo 2016. 5000 words

November 3, 2016 November 3, 2016  2016, nanowrimo, novel, writing 0

Woohoo. 5000 words done, and relatively easily. At least, I didn’t have to stay up until the wee hours to fill the quota. And 800 extra words are a nice little asset for the future.

NaNoWriMo 2016. Day 1

November 1, 2016 November 1, 2016  2016, nanowrimo, novel, writing 0

So, the first day of NaNoWriMo was a lucky day: I wrote more than 2,000 words. And a strange one because I spent the first part of the day, almost until 2pm, writing nothing. Well, 50 words in the bathroom right after getting up, but that’s about it. Which, if …

NaNoWriMo 2016

October 28, 2016 October 28, 2016  2016, nanowrimo, novel, writing 0

The first time I heard about NaNoWriMo (National Novel Writing Month) was, oh God, about fifteen years ago. Yet it was only last year when I joined, and, interestingly, won. Little did I know that what I was writing during that November wasn’t a novel or even a part of …
