Considering giving nano a go again, i feel like its worth a shot, but having a 3 month old and the partners other kids at weekends makes me think the 50k target is not going to happen. but aiming to write every day might be.

So yeah im doing it, but im doing my own target xD

I just miss working on my original nano idea. A medieval fantasy type influenced by a series i was into at the time. I read it over after the first nano and realised the lack of planning made everything sound wrong, inaccurate, the characters were flawed the travel times were off etc. I started liking my smaller characters more than my main ones, the plot was changing itself cause it was fun to do it another way...it just went mad and sounded awful haha.

I wanna try again, work on the plot improve the character traits etc. Or just focus on one character at a time writing a chapter for each and see what works. I dunno...Ive never got the idea out of my head so i feel like i cant just....forget about it. It needs to be done right before i can totally give up. It's nearly 7 years since i first had the idea and i still dont have a 1st draft cause i suck at planning and mapping.
