Stressing

I don't want to call it quits on NaNo. It's literally day 5 of it and I'm already burning out. Everyone already has 20k+ while I'm here with 4k. Oh what great progress I'm making, not. I haven't been working on my NaNo story because to be honest, I hate it. The first chapter is trash, and It makes me cringe when I read it.

I have an outline but I haven't followed it at all, woops. So I've basically been avoiding that story for a bit. I've been working on updates for another story but they feel forced. The fact that i'm feeling that way is not okay. It's basically like I'm updating just to get word counts.

So if this is how it's going to be for the rest of the month, then I'm done. I have other things to focus on and I'm not going to let NaNo stress me out.

But I'd love to know how you guys get high word counts? I think my main problem is focusing. At work I seem to get distracted by youtube videos or something.

But yeah, that's basically what's been on my mind.
