NaNo – Day 3

Another day, another good word count *grin*

2547
I struggled a bit today.
Samwise was around and wanting to be played with, until Grandma Gandalf turned up and I was able to escape… 😉 Also the words weren’t flowing that well. Until I got my h moving, then they practically shot along. Well the last 600 words did anyway.
And this keyboard on the laptop is driving me crazy.
Nothing compares to the beauty of the keyboard of the Dana… *sigh* It’s probably the reason why my word count is as high as it is.
How the hell have I written anything on this God-awful thing! LOL

Early morning trip

The Ent had to start work extra early today so I have the joy of taking Frodo to school.

It wasn’t too bad, as he goes to Breakfast Club, which meant the buses were fairly empty. Samwise walked, which was easier than me lugging the pram on and off the various buses. It had the extra benefit of when he got in, and had stuffed his face and watched a bit of Aladdin, he wanted to go to sleep. Yay

I got my Nano quota up while he did. *grin*

Here’s the update:

NaNo -Day 2

The h in this story spent a fair chunk of my 2487 words undressing the hero. One simple idea gave me about 1000 words I wouldn’t have had. Hurrah! The Favourite Line above is not about undressing the hero, btw. *smirk*

Now I have to go and catch up on a bazillion emails… *sigh*

We did the Hallowe’en thing…

Frodo and Samwise were a bit reluctant to get dressed up. It’s the first year of doing this, and I think they were a bit non-plussed about why their mother was forcing them to be a spider and a skeleton pirate.

Though going to bed in them seemed a good idea. And this morning, Frodo wanted to go to school in his costume. So a minor success, I think.

Today is also the first day of NaNoWriMO. That’s being updated here:

NaNo – Day 1

It’s done. My first 1700 words are done and I’ve left myself a little note for what I have to do tomorrow. November is going to be a very l-o-n-g month, LOL

I’m also doing these little pages as an incentive to myself. I’ll be having a different one for every day, with a different favourite line. I’m hoping it will make me write…

:::Edit:::

Just to add, my total is now 2479 for today.
There was an email from the Nanowrimo people saying that we should aim for 2500 everyday this week.

Eep…
