Well, two weeks into this nano-wrimo thing and I’m only 12 days behind. However, I’d be two weeks behind if not for what’s been happening the last couple of days.
I’m writing, and writing well, if the levee walls have not completely let loose, there is a lot of water coming over them. You see, I am even thinking in metaphors now. Just like the old days.
So, I’ve got a new little game I play with myself, motivational ploy, gimmick, whatever you want to call it, I think it is making this a little more fun. What I’m doing is constantly updating my word count. I wish those little graphs went by update instead of by day, I suppose writing a widget to do that would be simple, but right now it is beyond me. What I keep doing is updating my word count when I hit a break in writing, and then refresh this home page. Then, Wah-Lah, I have this new little graph to look at and compare to previous days.
I’m wondering about the graph a lot, wondering what happens when I max it out for a day, all that stuff, and thinking of how boring it will be if it just turns completely green. I hope not, something like that might make me take the time to figure out how to mess with it or make my own, and I don’t need to take time to do that, not this month.
