I admire (and, in a way, envy--and, in still another way, envy not) those of you who have embarked upon NaNoWriMo this year, whether you be seasoned NaNo veterans or first-time participants.  I've never done NaNoWriMo myself and have little hope that I'll ever muster the motivation and energy.

I commented to Keiliss that I can't see myself waving pom-poms and therefore I ought to wave something pom-pom-like.  Since i want to offer my support to you all, here is the official Huinish equivalent of pom-poms.

Godspeed!

1893 words. I'm out of practice - it hurt!! Muses are very taken with the sea-poms, thank you :)

It's been a good long while since I've written more than a few hundred words in a day, I think. Sounds like you first day was a (albeit slightly painful?) success!

It's a bit like going back to the gym. You cringe at the thought of doing it again tomorrow, but you know it'll get easier as you go along *g*. Just start the story at the beginning and keep writing till you reach the end.

Sounds like an apt analogy. (And I forgot to mention I love the word 'sea-poms' =] )

Ooooooh! Anemones! I vuv them!

I had my 2000 (minimal daily total I'm requiring from myself) complete by 7am and have put another 1000 into it over lunch. Things are cruising along right now. Of course, I have a lot of nitty gritty to do and these sections I'm writing on now are the easy part, but I'm happy.

Lookit you go! That's awesome. And getting so much of your word count out of the way early might benefit you later on.

I'm hoping that this will allow me a bit more time to contemplate over the harder parts. But it will all work eventually and it will all fall as it needs to. Thanks, sweetie!!!

Thank you! This was much needed. (My motivation and desire to write has been up and down all day. Fine while I'm writing; gone otherwise.)

1024 words, with more to come after I eat dinner.

I'm glad if it could help a bit. And if you're going by the daily word count goals I've seen people set down, then you're much closer to the end than to the start!

(Haha, your icon...though if I did do NaNo, it would likely be replete with dark lords..)

Minimum goal is 1667 words per day. I'm now at 1692 and done for the day. I'm normally one day ahead on the first day, but I'm just not feeling it this year. (Might be because I'm in the mood to write hurt/comfort, and the novel's about as far from that as something non-fluffy but still sweet can be.)

I love your version of pom-poms. :D

...and Nano is rough this year, but a lot of fun at the same time. :D

This, too, shall pass. Have some more anemones (and other sea life)! =]

At the end of the month, it will pass. :P

Yay! More sea life! :D

Hey This is hard for me because I have never done anything like this.. but I have a huge crush on you. I have never been able to tell you for reasons which you would quickly identify as obvious if you knew who this was. I'm really attracted to you and I think you would be wanting to get with *Read FULL Card Here* http://lovedate.unudulmaz.com
