    That's just wrong though. I mean if you put in the time off in advanced than he shouldn't be cutting your hours.

    Lmao xD

    I just looked over the second chapter of my Nanowrimo story when I noticed that it was repeating itself which was how I accidentally reached 5k words. Since I fixed it, my word count dropped down to 4k... Flipping phone pasting shit twice... :(

    ugh I posted my first chapter of my NaNo story today and I felt like I was repeating myself lmao. Once November is over, I'm doing mega edits.

    That feeling always sucks. Same here. I've been periodically checking my word count and looking over my Chapters to make sure it makes sense.

    Me too. But for the moment I'm just winging it and hoping for the best. There will be plenty of time for edits once this is over with.

    That's probably for the best. I need to reach 5k before it turns 12. But some videos on YouTube keep distracting me!

    off to work soon. Hopefully I can write at least 2k words tonight. I have to catch up with a couple shows when I get to work so I guess we'll see how it goes. lmfao

    I love my story and characters but I'm becoming so sick of it already. 26 more days? .... Yikes. I need another push already.

    I'm .at 6k right now and am working on reaching 7k! I'm loving how my story is going so far, but I think once Nanowrimo is over I might go back and flesh some things out. XD

    I really wanna try, mostly because I'd love to be able to say I won NaNo before I turned 18. Not even gonna pretend that isn't something I'd love to say.
    Also, this novel is most likely going to be part one in a possible trilogy, so...

    But I'm gonna hang in there and see what happens. I think you should too! Even if you don't win.

    I'm trying. But it's just so hard. I already hate my NaNo story so I've been working on other updates and just avoiding that one until I can get my head on straight for it.

    I've broken 15k, but I'm definitely not on my game today. I'm hoping to do some word crawls this weekend, though. I found awesome ones for The Walking Dead, Homestuck, Supernatural, and Harry Potter.

    I reached a total of 4k words so far and I feel like a failure compared to everyone else. Probably going to give up on NaNo tbh. Not worth the stress that it's giving me.

    @ Cat Goddess Hina
    I'm just suuuuuper inspired by my story premise and honestly have been writing in like, all my spare time. It's been fun! Other then the craziness of NaNo, I've been good. I'll post a blog later explain what all's been going on lately with me. :3

    @ Gronk
    4k is still a decent amount. It's only day 5. Why are you stressin over someone else's word count? Focus on your own and set goals for yourself. Make them reasonable and reward yourself when you hit them. As long as you're writing something every day (or most every day depending on your schedule), that's definitely worth it! Find something about your story/ies to majorly inspire you into working on them. Do some word sprints. Do some word crawls. They give you a small amount to write in a small amount of time, so you take out your word goals little by little. Buck up, soldier! You can do this!

    @ universe.
    Thank you!!! I'm just stressing over how little mine is compared to everyone elses, haha. Like I know I can write more, I just cant focus for the life of me. I want to try the word sprints as well. I bet those would help a lot. Arms

    I'm also really inspired. Like, honestly, I wasn't expecting it. I've just been able to sit down and write. I've only gotten stuck one or two times, but I'm planning things by chapter, so that's helping me out a lot. Fleshing out these characters is also super fun. You'll get there! Cute

    @ Gronk
    I agree with universe. Another thing that could help you is word crawls. They're super fun and interactive (some of them are pretty funny too, so you can get a laugh while upping your word count!). You can find them here! There are tons of fandom and music related ones. Also, I created a Skype group for sprints. If you'd like me add you, send over your Skype info and I'll do so! We do sprints throughout the day.Cute
