Cue Panic

Listening: Annie - Vanessa Carlton

ONE HOUR TIL NANO. I am forced now to flail wildly.

But I am also forced to admit that I may not be as screwed as I thought I was. I have more effectively solved the dilemma I was experiencing with POV, due in no small part to input from both Jam and John. Glee glee glee. So that's been sorted out.

Also, as long as I know where my novel's going I don't mind not having a clue about the in-between. Sometimes it really is fun just to suck back coffee, snarf chocolate, and write until your forehead starts to bleed. It is going to be ridiculously hard not to go back and edit what comes out of this month, but as long as I keep up with some of the tips I've read on the NaNo forums I think I'll be alright. There's plenty of time for editing later. Right now what I'm concerned with is effectively conveying this story the way it bloody well wants to be conveyed. Or how I want it to be conveyed. Whatever comes first.

2000 words is tonight's goal. I specifically downloaded a decent word program (yay AbiWord) to do an accurate word count on my laptop. My reward for reaching said goal is actually allowing myself to sleep. I can see right now that this is going to be one hell of a month.

OMG TWENTY MINUTES TO NANO OMG OMG OMG SO CLOSE PANDA PANDA PANDA PANDA
