Nanowrimo post-mortem, and Advent Calendar · 11:23pm Dec 2nd, 2019
So. I achieved half a Nano -- 25K words on my original novel -- while also sneaking in another 15K on things like The Rise of Chaos and some ficlets. What I learned is that it's really hard for me to stick to writing just one thing in a month.
So this month I'm going to write what I want, but my aim is mostly to write things I can post online, which means catching up on some MLP fanfics!
I remember as a kid how much I loved Advent Calendars, where you open the little door and get a picture for every day before Christmas. So I am going to do (or try to do) an Advent Calendar for fic, where I report word counts on stuff you guys care about, every day that I manage to produce them. (I am not arrogant enough to think I really can do every day in 24.)
As judging from the fact that this is Dec. 2, I am likely to post this info pretty late, but if I get anything written at all on Dec. 24th it will certainly not be late at night, so I should be able to catch up at the last second if needed.
Anyway, 2442 words on Not the Hero for Dec. 1.
Hey, that's 40k words you wouldn't have written otherwise, right? :D Good job!
Wonderful, something to look forward to during the Christmas season!
Huzzah! Writing is good, and your Advent calendar idea sounds cool. Here’s to it!
Congrats then
