Morning!
So, I'm like ... 7,000 words behind on my NaNoWriMo project, and I'm definitely in the 'arg this doesn't work everything is terrible' phase. Part of the problem is I don't give the characters enough time to snark and talk to each other, as dialogue is one of the few writing things I'm good at. Also, y'kno, motivations and stuff.
Though as a sidenote, this is also making the OTHER project I'd been working on look a lot more coherent in retrospect. Go figure. 'course, I still need to think of a coherent villain plan over there, but still.
But! Things aren't all writery angst, nope! As I just discovered another of my stories (and perhaps the best of my stories) has gotten a live reading-- courtesy of PresentPerfect, of all folks. You should check it out!
certainly the best of your stories :3
My dude, wasting time and energy on self criticism and self editing sounds counter productive for something like a nanowrimo. Not that I word good for my advice to be significant in any way. Good luck though.
