I again had to reread last year’s book in order to get up to speed on characters and plot. I’ve got multiple spreadsheets with plot, characters, timing, etc – but reading works better for me. So I read for a while today, and then wrote quite a bit. I’m ahead of the average! I don’t know if I’ve ever written more than the 1667 average words suggested. I’m always behind. But not this year. (And I don’t know how long it’ll last, but I’ll take it for now!)

I reeeeally like my book. All the stuff I read today made me really happy. Again, it’s got lots of problems. But I really want to finish this NaNoWriMo, which would mean I finish the book, and then I can start editing the 150k in its entirety. Which will be awesome.

I also kinda feel like I’m getting better at writing. Might just be me. But… yeah. It’s interesting. I mean, overall, I’ve been doing this since 2006. So I would hope I’m getting better. But I hadn’t really noticed before.

Progress 🙂
