Yes, it’s a little pathetic, but I am forcing myself to NOT give up. Listening to the little voice that says “you’ll never make it” is just counterproductive.
I have to look at it this way…this is the most I’ve written, not to mention the most regularly I’ve written, in a VERY long time. And I’m going to keep plugging away. I’m going to finish this story.
As I said, I tend to write in about 700-word bursts. The thing is, I tend to do that fairly easily. I just need to do MORE of them.
Will I be listed among the NaNo winners this year? Perhaps not, but I have to think of that as a secondary goal now.
Encourage me. Do not let me give up. 😉
