The idea is just to get the thing written, initially, right? Not worry about editing and whatnot until it's done.

1300 words in. It's going to be a long month. Meep.

Absolutely!!!! Edit later. I think it's easiest if you can turn off that internal critic - but that's hard!!!

Apparently all that crap I plotted only applies to the first 1000 words or so. Now it's fly by the seat of my pants. I'm making it up as I go. -headdesk-

I'm at about 1300 too. Good luck!

Yep. I did 2388 yesterday, but today feels a lot shorter.

*hugs* That's right! Quantity, not quality baby! :P

If it's any help... I still haven't actually decided WHICH story I'm writing yet.

:p

Precisely! Word count is the ONLY thing you need to worry about. I'm not even aiming for coherence. Like, "oh, this completely contradicts what I wrote yesterday? FUCK IT. i'll sort it out later!"

December is for editting. And everything you personally write counts, like LJ entries for instance.

NaNo started Monday and I've written exactly nothing. Awesome. :/
