I have tried to give myself more time to write but currently I have had to help with a lot of cooking, cleaning and preparation for Thanksgiving. Also, I went to visit some distant family in Surry County over the weekend and did not have any time to write at all. I have been STRESSED OUT these last few weeks with homework, family issues, etc. I am trying to see if we have anything planned for the coming week and I will try to make it to 30,000 words this week. As my dad says, "you never know what it's like until you actually get a true taste of it". I am trying to make a lot of progress. I am thinking of ending writing next
I have been making more progress but now that Thanksgiving is coming up in a week, I feel as if I will have to spend those 5 days writing over 4 hours per day. I think over the next few days to get writing done before Thanksgiving and Christmas, I will spend a LOT of my time writing. I will get home at about 4 each evening and just write until about 8 at night then try to get some writing done during FLEX Time or when I have free time in some of my classes. I have made a little progress but I will try to make more over the past few days.
I am running out of ideas for the plot and I feel drained from writing but I know I have to do it for most of my free time now. Email me with any questions! This week, I plan on doing the NaNoWriMo 50,000 word challenge this month and making more time for writing. I am planning on spending a lot more time writing than normal. Mondays through Thursdays, I will write at least two to three hours. Fridays through Sundays, I will spend over three to five hours writing and making more plot adjustments for this novel. It is very hard to write but I know that I will dedicate most of my time now writing when I have the chance to. More and more events and such keep coming up on the calendar but I know that when I am out of school, I will have a lot more time to write the book and make some adjustments to the plot of it.
I am currently coming up with a plan to devote more of my time to writing. I am thinking on the weekdays, Mondays through Thursdays, I am going to try to devote at least an hour to two hours writing. Then on Fridays, I will devote over three hours or more to writing which will mostly be at night since I will spend a lot of time with family and friends over the next few weeks. I will be posting as many updates about other aspects of my writing experience. I hope to see some feedback on this soon!
