NaNoWriMo Day 24 Recap: Cornhole and Pie

I apparently am one day off on my NaNoToons…Oh, well. You still get to enjoy them! Anyway, I actually just didn’t remember to update today before it published, for those of you who saw the initial post go up before I edited it. Because I actually got in 2,000 words yesterday, which I was quiteContinueContinue reading “NaNoWriMo Day 24 Recap: Cornhole and Pie”

NaNoWriMo Day 23 Recap: Thanksgiving!

You all expected to see ZERO words today, didn’t you? Especially in light of the last few days? Well….so did I. But apparently having insomnia at 3 in the morning means getting word count in on a normally zero-word-count day. So 2,300 words it was! And a rather exhausting day of cooking after being upContinueContinue reading “NaNoWriMo Day 23 Recap: Thanksgiving!”

NaNoWriMo Day 21 Recap: Pitching and Playing

Okay, it’s a REALLY GOOD THING I was doing so well at the beginning of the month because I’m making up for it now (seriously, why does this take place the month of Thanksgiving??), but I had a REALLY GOOD EXCUSE. Part of the day anyway. I was finishing preparing for and then actually doingContinueContinue reading “NaNoWriMo Day 21 Recap: Pitching and Playing”

NaNoWriMo Day 20 Recap: Nada. Distracted by war movies.

Wow. Me having these on auto-schedule is really coming back to bite! I keep forgetting to update them before they go up! But at least it makes me come back and actually update you all. Yesterday, I…didn’t do a thing. Well. I didn’t think I did. I looked at Scrivener, which has informed me thatContinueContinue reading “NaNoWriMo Day 20 Recap: Nada. Distracted by war movies.”

NaNoWriMo Day 19 Recap: Chilling with Chili

I know, I know – another belated update! I actually did fairly well on Sunday, with about 1300 words! I barely squeezed them in, between prepping the house for my parents (yup, people – my parents are coming to my in-laws for Thanksgiving! All four parents together. This could get crazy) and going to Daniel’sContinueContinue reading “NaNoWriMo Day 19 Recap: Chilling with Chili”

NaNoWriMo Day 18 Recap: Igloos and Champagne

You know why I only got like 300 words in yesterday? Because I was catching up on social media stuff after two days of driving and then, a new annual tradition, Daniel’s brother and his wife rented an “igloo” on the top of a restaurant where we all gathered to visit, eat, and drink champagne!ContinueContinue reading “NaNoWriMo Day 18 Recap: Igloos and Champagne”

NaNoWriMo Day 17 Recap: Rewriting

I’ve been on the road the last two days heading to Oklahoma, which means full days of driving since my husband works from the car. And that, in turn, translates to being too tired to write afterwards. So, yes, I did skip the recap for the 16th, because I didn’t want to admit to youContinueContinue reading “NaNoWriMo Day 17 Recap: Rewriting”

NaNoWriMo Day 15 Recap: The Trip Begins

I am finally getting back on track, people! I mean, not as on track as I want to be, but 4k words yesterday is still nothing to scoff at, right? Anyway, most of the day yesterday was spent packing (seriously, I thought we got more done the day before – how does packing take soContinueContinue reading “NaNoWriMo Day 15 Recap: The Trip Begins”
