word count

[alishenai.livejournal.com]

This is my first Nano and to make it harder I haven't written anything in years. So far I've just been trying to write at least the
1,666 words per day or if I can, an even 2,000. But no more than that because I have a lot of colleage work that I need to finish. Anyway it makes me nervous to see that some people are writing 4,000 or more words per day. So I just wondered is anyone else only writing the minimal 1,666?

I didn't write anything yesterday! I had to work, and I was sleep deprived from being silly on Halloween.

Now I am at over 2500 words. I work in spurts. It makes NaNo seem like less of an obligation and more of a fun project.

I can understand. I can already see myself doing some catch-up writing on the weekend, although I've been able to manage the daily word count so far.
