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'm doing as you are doing. If, for some reason I get wild inspiration, I will gladly write more, but at present I am doing the minimal and happy enough with that. I could feel intimidated by some of the high counts if I wanted to, but I learned to compare myself to myself in all areas of my life. I do a lot better that way. My best gets better from day to day. I don't even want to do someone else's best now. I think I am pretty cool. LOL!
