Writing 50,000 words comes down to 1667 words a day. It is not a big deal for me, I thought, because I write at least 3000 words every day, in one form or other.
I hit 26000 words in ten days. It was a big deal and I thought I don’t need to rush anymore. I wrote 785 words on Friday afternoon. After that, I got so busy in other activities that I have not gotten any time to work on that manuscript.
I took the day off, hoping to catch up on my NaNoWriMo progress. I failed, miserably. It is 9:30 PM in my timezone and I have not even opened the document, let alone write more words.
