NaNo Day Twenty-One -- Falling Behind

It is a rough road that leads to the heights of greatness. - Seneca

I got behind on my writing yesterday. Well, my NaNo writing. I reviewed the galley for my story, found one formatting boo-boo, checked it again this morning, found one glaring grammatical error (my fault entirely) and sent that sucker back for final corrections. Woo!

I sent off my WW story to Judy who is also attempting to write for WW. She gave me some great suggestions. The only problem is word count restrictions. When I first wrote my story is was 400 words over the allowed count for WW. So I cut and cut until it fit, but I think it lost a little bit. Still, it's a challenge, so I'm going to clean it up and somehow manage to keep the count down. Thanks, Judy!

I will hopefully have a chance to do a little catching up today. My DD will be at Grandma's house for a few hours for "craft day" and I intend on writing my tush off (ha. If only it was that easy to get rid of my tush!). With any luck and a lot of hard work, I should be able to get a few thousand words today. That's my goal. Check back later this afternoon to see if I managed to do it!

I'm excited to greet the beginning of 2007 with the He Wrote/She Wrote How To Write Fiction blog! I'm also thinking about what I want to accomplish, writing-wise, next year. Yup, folks, it's almost time for New Year Resolutions!

That's the story of my life for now. How are you?

==========================

Thanks to some writing prompts and miscellaneous scenes, I've written 1,900words on my NaNo novel today. Maybe I'll get some more, but for now, my grand total is:

36,120 / 50,000
