I was supposed to spend the weekend editing, but the
rebellious part of me whispered, in a week you’ll be knee deep in Nanowrimo so
why don’t you take the weekend off. And I listed to that part of me. I figured
this was the last time in the next month I could listen to this voice because
as of November 1st that sucker is locked in a box and tucked behind
the word count monster. My last post was some advice for the upcoming month.
Continuing with this theme is my suggestion on word count.
I follow Reverse Nanowrimo or some people call it Backwards Nanowrimo.
I start with a higher word count while I’m motivated. It’s the beginning of the
month and I haven’t fallen to turkey coma yet. Below is the chart I follow. I also tend to toss in try and get a higher word count on weekends to balance out hard days during the week where the house exploded and it couldn't wait.
-Happy Writing
