NaNoWriMo word count day 12: 8619
Mondays are my Fridays. What I wrote today came in the small time between getting ready for work and leaving for work. Today's shift is usually 3p-11:30, and though I slept until noon to try to catch up after this week's weird scheduling I still had time enough to put in 1200 words. I'm getting a little better with the passing time, now I hope I can catch up. I had wanted to get many more than 50,000 words this year, but I don't know if I can.
And if I hadn't been so keen on watching a co-worker play through
career mode on Guitar Hero 3 while I monitored some minor work-in-area,
I might have had more words to write.
VIDEO GAMES ARE THE BANE OF NANO. At least for me. And worse, I found out this song is going to be in the new Rock Band (to be released Nov. 20th, in time for frantic Thanksgiving thrashing).
I record here not excuses for why I don't get the work done, but all the reasons I can possibly come up with so I know how to compensate. There's always some distraction, but the keen mind is prepared and can avoid such pitfalls. Or so I believe. I'll know when I'm a success.
