Days Since Day Seven

Day Total: 108 words

Draft Total: 3332 words

NaNo Total: 3166 words

Current Chapter: 1

I have not been writing lately, because I have been reading. I am hoping to get back into writing today, but I don't think I will be able to get the 20k words goal.

Spoiler! :
TBH, I probably won't either. But that's okay! If you don't meet the end goal, that's perfectly fine. You tried, you wrote, you wrote some more. (Sorry if I sound like a broken record 'cause this is pretty much all I say for NaNo, "write, write more, write, write.") Also, reading is totally worth the time. Books are life!

Days Since Day 17

Day Total: 372 words

Draft Total: 4132 words

NaNo Total: 3966 words

Current Chapter: 1

Only two days left of NaNo, and I didn't really get close to 20k. I'm hoping to cram in lots of writing in the last days to hopefully make it to 5k, but I have intended to do cool stuff and have not done that. But at least I got some sort of writing this month, even though it was a painfully small amount.

Spoiler! :
Thank you so much for the encouragement @Spearmint!!!!


NaNo 2023 Reflection:
I didn't write as much as I hoped this month, but that's okay, because at least I wrote something. I didn't reach my goal, but I planned for my novel, and now I have some sort of idea on what pace to go at. Also, it's not like I am a professional writer, and this is actually my first NaNo, so instant success was probably not going to happen. I really loved thinking about my novel and also seeing how other people had progress throughout the month. The month did not involve as much writing as I hoped, but in the end, it's not the worst thing in the world. I also learned to be positive about my writing because of the people commenting in my thread. Thank you so much @Carlito, @Spearmint, and @spottedpebble for the encouraging comments! They really helped.
