So, I said that I was going to do an update on how I was doing for NaNoWriMo, but uh, yeah, that didn’t end up happening. I’m not surprised to be honest. I didn’t honestly think that I was actually going to write a blog post every week. Who was I kidding making that promise. I should honestly stop making promises to people that I know that I’m not going to be able to keep. So, just an overall update, I didn’t manage to finish my NaNo project. I got to like 30k, but I didn’t manage to finish it
I’m not mad about not finishing it though. I’m going to hopefully be able to finish it eventually. I am actually determined to finish it. I want to really work on it over winter break. I have two weeks off for winter break, so I’m really wanting to be able to work on it a lot, and hopefully be able to actually finish it by then. I just want to give these last few weeks of school before it’s over to be able to let it sit, and let my brain kind of recharge from writing constantly over the past month Throughout the month, especially during the middle towards the end of the month, I found it harder to be able to get myself motivated and actually wanting to write. I would often write like a few words just to keep my streak up at like 10 pm just because I was drained from school and work. It wasn’t easy trying to juggle school, work, tennis, and NaNo all in one month. I found that I couldn’t completely juggle everything, so some things were left on the back burner and didn’t get the attention that it really needed I also found myself away from everyone a lot more than normal (which, if we’re being honest, it’s quite normal for me to be isolated from the world quite a lot). I was constantly in my room and on my laptop writing. It didn’t help that I kept distracting myself by going on youtube. It was a massive problem. I feel like if I didn’t have school, work, or my family bothering me, I could probably finish my project Like I said before, I’m not going to be writing these last few weeks until winter break. I really need to catch up on my homework that I may or may not have abandoned some over NaNo… Ok, don’t judge. Who would want to do school whenever you’re in this competition to finish a novel in just 30 days? But yeah, I’m just going to be working on that this weeked and everything will be just fine! I really want this novel to be published, so I’m not going to be saying anything about it just yet. I’m also possibly making an author instagram page, but I’m not 100% sure about that one, so just stay tuned for that if I do end up making it or not because I’m not sure if I even want to have a social media account even if it’s just for me being an author. You guys will most definitely be the first ones to hear anything about it. What it’s about, what the title is, the publication date, ect. I’m excited for this one, and can’t wait to see where this journey brings me!!!
