You can do it!!! Haha. This year is my first NaNoWriMo and I'm stuck on 2000 some words. Haha. My story is called 'Not Like Normal People' I'm wishing you luck and I'll totally read anything if you want me to. =) Good luck.
I haven't started writing for today, but I did surpass the goal of 1,667 for yesterday, so I feel I can slack just a tiny bit today.
I think you should definitely do your school work first. After all NaNo, you're not getting a grade for it, this is for fun and fun should always come after school. Now for me, I'm homeschooled and my NaNo is going to count as a grade in English.
That's basically the reason I'm not doing nanowrimo. It sucks because technically the semester is over but I still have three massive heavily weighted assignments to do and an exam to study for.
Instead I'm gonna do it unofficially in december, lol.
I'm with you there I have less then 1000 words and it's gonna fucking kill me to write more, I have no ideas what so ever with this
