nanowrimo_ljWhat do you do when your writing kills your enthusiasm for your story? As far as I can tell, my options are:
1. Push myself to 50K with my current plot. This is what I did the past two years, but I was miserable the entire time and didn't feel like much of a winner.
2. Put my current plot aside for now and write something strictly for the lolz so I can enjoy myself and I won't feel like I have to write well. Seems like a good idea, but I'm not particularly good at writing humor.
3. Keep working on my current plot at my own pace. Again, seems like a good idea, except that my normal pace is incredibly slow, so I might never get it finished.
4. Quit NaNo. I really don't want to do this. I hate giving up, and I get more writing done during NaNo than any other month of the year.
Yeah, I know I'm probably being way too pessimistic about this, but I'd appreciate some advice. Thanks in advance.
