Don’t let your ego lead you around, for your happiness doesn’t depend upon recognition. Do the hard work behind the scenes and get ready for what comes later this autumn.
that’s from my horoscope today. interesting as i woke up this morning thinking about nanowrimo and whether i might be up for giving it a shot this november. i don’t think i harbor any delusions that i could actually pull off 50,000 words in a month, but i could probably do half that. who knows, if i got on a roll, it’s possible i could do it. 2,000 words a day, with one whole day a week off isn’t the most insurmountable thing ever. yeah, it’s a lot, but lots of people do it every year.
even if i did the half version i think it would be worth it. 1,000 words a day, if i actually have a plot all in place, is definitely doable. and i’m all inspired today to work on my worldbuilding project, so we’ll see if come october, i’m ready to sign up.
