Okay, yet another day has passed. I’m wrote 1103 words which doesn’t reach the daily goal. But it’s something. I’m beginning to think that I might have to take a day off to cover the backlog. I’m disappointed in myself. How’s everyone else fairing with their projects? Shabana Mukhtar

Another disastrous day. I didn’t get a moment to sit down and write. The story is hair bubbling in my head ready to be inked, but I just don’t have the time. And then when I get to bed, I’m too tired to write. Argh! Only 0 words today. My dream to win NaNoWriMo 2021…

  I wrote only 661 words today. This is not going good. The household chores take most of my time, and I just don’t get time to sit down and write. I hope to compensate for the past two days. Shabana Mukhtar

Nothing, zilch, zero… I wrote nothing today. Didn’t even get to think about the current project. Something’s up this vacation. Not getting much time to write. Shabana Mukhtar

    If yesterday was the best day of NaNoWriMo 2021, today is the worst. I wrote ~5000 words yesterday and only ~500 words today. So so bad… But hey, the vacation has just begun. Shabana Mukhtar

NaNoWriMo 2021 | Day 3 | Several spurts of writing Diwali vacation began today, and I had plenty of time in hand.  I wrote 4982 words today. That’s almost 5000 words, five freakin thousand words. Am I awesome or what? Of course, I can’t hope to get the same momentum tomorrow onwards. With vacation comes…

NaNoWriMo 2021, Day 2, Writing sprint 1 25 minutes, 787 words I added all of these words in the chapter that I wrote yesterday. I should have started with the next chapters, but then any progress is progress, right? I finished 787 words. That’s something NaNoWriMo 2021, Day 2, Writing sprint 2 1 hour and…

    NaNoWriMo 2021, Day 1, Writing sprint 1 15 minutes, 510 words Yes, I’m writing. I just finished the first writing sprint of 15 minutes, wrote 510 words. Not bad, huh? NaNoWriMo 2021, Day 1, Writing sprint 2 45 minutes, 1007 words. This sprint isn’t as good as the second one, but I had…

Alright, so after much back and forth, I’ve decided to continue with the project I outlined earlier this month. I have ~10K words already, and I hope to add 50K this month. It will be a novel alright. The title isn’t decided yet. Let’s call it “Undecided” for now. Shabana Mukhtar

Let me admit. I have apprehensions about this NaNoWriMo. I have finalized a project, I have planned it, and outlined it. But now I have another shiny idea that tempts me to change my mind. Should I work on the new idea? Should I stick to the one that is almost meticulously planned? I’m so…
