nanowrimo is coming to an end and i have no more than 4000 words. i stink. i have done nothing more than prove that residency and novel writing don't really go hand in hand. tis a shame. in reality, though, i had time to write...i just chose to be lazy. guess i'll never have the motivation to be the next khaled hosseini or michael crichton (md authors). bleh to me.
i am considering putting up my nanowrimo story up here (or on a separate account) and that way i can force myself to update weekly. i dunno though...there are a few things i need to take into consideration. firstly, it's so hard to put up an actual piece of writing (not something like this which i just write and post without really thinking about), without doing major editing. secondly, what if i hit a stump and it gets boring? thirdly, should i work on nanowrimo piece or the story i've been working on forever?<----the outcome of this answer brings up a whole list of other questions, which i won't get into.
any suggestions would be appreciated (guess that means you, saq...i don't seem to get many other hits...hehe). or if the idea sounds bad all together, lemme know that too.
the weather was great today. i know this only because i decided to do laundry and that required me stepping out of my house, running over to the unit next to mine and using the laundry room there. a lil piece of me wanted to go to a park. okay...i lie...a huge piece of me wanted to go to a park, however, every piece of me knew that once i got there, i would be bored and wondering what i was doing there and head straight back here. so...basically, i'm glad i didn't go.
start nights tonight. goodbye nonexistent life. i'm going to nap now and then i'll get up and head on outta here. not all too exciting, but i am content. let's keep it that way.
so here is what you do. you post something...probably the nanowrimo stuff b/c who cares if it gets boring. in fact if it does you need to know! that's the only way to get feedback. my thoughts.
ReplyDeleteTotally agree with hammy, post the stuff. Both, if you want, just distinguish between the two. The questioning reeks of preprocastinating symptoms. I do that all the time. Talk myself out of doing something even before I ever decided to do it.
ReplyDeletethanks for the input, guys. i'll be working on a new site to start! whether or not i retain attention, at least it'll give me something to do.
