Week Three was a Failure!!!
I should be pelted with pencils, pens, highlighters etc etc.
It has been an ENTIRE WEEK since I have written. Yep thats right...I sit here, waving my word count total as it escalates further and further up that goal mountain.
I have reasons though....
First: I had a big celebration on the weekend. Actually on Saturday. So clearly that ruled out my Saturday and Sunday for anything creative to come about right? Can anyone right with a hangover? Moving on, Monday came as did a horrible scratching feeling in my throat, tuesday followed with an excruciating pounding in my head, aches, pains, fever and a cough to wake a sleeping giant. By Wednesday I was out cold, super doped up with cold tablets! I was mess re-incarnated. So clearly yesterday I spent the day recuperating and although by mid-afternoon I would considered myself fine for some serious typing, I found a better comfort watching some ridiculous movie of pay tv. So here I am Friday. I DID do 1,700 words last Friday that have not been added to my total.
So here are my current stats:
Current Word Count: 21,885
Current Word Par that I need to be at: 35,006
How many words do I need to do before tonight: Only 13,121!!!!!!!
In other words...im so screwed!!!!!
GOOD NEWS though: I have left this weekend open and due to this horrible phlegmy problem I've got going on (Mmm...bet your glad you kept reading) I have had to cancel a few things in order to keep myself from getting worse. SO instead I have decided to try my almighty hardest to catch up.
SOOO.....by the end of the weekend I need to have done: 38,340 words.
Minus my current word total = 16,455
Divded by 3 days (Fri, Sat & Sun) = 5,485 words a day.
Chunking down is the ONLY way this seems possible.
So to all those still on the NanoWrimo boat....GOOD WORK!!
For those who are behind like me and are still trying to keep up...GOOD LUCK!!!
and to those who have already given up....GOOD RIDDANCE!!! (dont be offended, its just that its made the Nano site WAY quicker to surf now that less and less people are logging on...its not personal...its all speed.
Besides I was very close to being one of you....VERY VERY close!!!
