Day 15

Well it's offically week 3.  Wow.  I'm behind.  But I'm not undaunted.  YET :)

Chris Baty from NaNoWriMo sends out weekly pep talks and I have to say that one section is what keeps me going:

The more you write, the more inspired you're going to feel. If you're feeling pokey now, it's because you're not writing enough. Push yourself to write every day, and make a point of adding something to your word count any time you're within striking distance of a keyboard. Harness the power of micro-sessions.  If you're far behind, stop figuring out where you're supposed to be each day. Instead, just dive into your story and write until you've rolled the word counter up by a thousand. Then take a twenty-minute break, and go after another thousand. Don't worry about getting caught up - that'll take care of itself. Just keep rolling those thousands.

JUST KEEP ROLLING THE THOUSANDS.  It's good.  With that in mind I wrote for a while this morning.  Had a bit of an Abby interuption and then wrote some more.  Now if I could just convince the housework to do itself I'd be free with more time to write.

Word Count:  10987
