NaNo Day One 2009

NaNo has started and I’m 2500 words in. That’s ahead of the suggested daily word count to get 50K by the 30^th. However my goal is to write 3 to 5K a day. Today my goal is to get at least 6K or more. I have two days this week where I’ll have daycare children from 6:30 am to 6 pm. I’m not sure I’ll be able to squeeze any writing in because they are school age and do not nap. I might be able to squeeze some time in if they all settle enough to watch a movie, but there’s always one or two that would rather play board games or do something else. My goal is to get 15K by Friday each week and only write on the weekends if absolutely necessary.  Good luck to all the NaNo’ers.

I’m taking a break from my writing to do this blog and to go grocery shopping. I should be making a list. I still have a few things to get for my NaNo time. These are must haves for me. Here’s my list-

1. New cool roller ball pen (still need)
2. New spiral bound notebook (2)
3. Coffee 
4. Music 
5. Candy (Candy Corn is my fave this time of year) 
6. Fuzzy warm socks 
7. NaNo T-shirts from previous years. Clean and ready to wear 

There’s probably more but I’ve been awake for a while and can’t think past my main character Lucy. She’s knocking on the front of my skull. She wants out so it’s back to writing for an hour and then off to do the shopping.

Until next time, live well now.
