When I have no motivation I skip to another scene to do something I feel more like. Or in this years case, skip to another story entirely.

I wrote four more words before giving up.
Yay. Four.

I've been lacking inspiration to write the last few days. D: *sighs* I'm stuck just over 18k but I was hoping to hit 20k by Sunday night, eh, that didn't happen.

Crap, I'm way behind! Even worse, I ended up writing stuff for a story I started months ago instead.
Going to try and write some right now!

I'm pushing myself to write 3000 by the end of tonight... but I have some RPs I promised I would update and pictures to draw before I even get onto that!

Busy day it busy!

That's absolutely extraordinary. What is your method? :O
I could definitely use some pointers if you have them, Nemo!

Dakukuu, you were suggesting me to skip to an entirely story in the previous post.
I don't get that meaning. Other stories that I may have in mind or reading up other people's story.

meh, I made 1.7k words. measly amount.

I don't plan at all, and I just write, whatever comes to mind. I really don't have any tips because most people probably wouldn't fair well with how I do it - it's all just following how my thoughts go. I can't look at the screen or keyboard, and just type. Doesn't always make sense.

Also no contractions, and know that you will probably have typos, and ignore them - so hard for me, I sometimes will go back to fix typos, and if I take out a word I make myself add in an extra word. So for every one word that comes out, two more go back in. Sometimes more.

Don't be afraid to have it suck, because it will... you can edit it later and make it work well and flow better after the month is over.

But I'm behind where I want to be... Oh well.... Doing fairly well over all.

I wasn't suggesting anything like that...I was say I can skip to another story because I'm working on a collection of different stories.

I've done nothing with mine since that first have at. Just too much work and well looking for work to focus on the story. ^^;;

I've got 455 words so far...I think it will be difficult for me to succeed and even get to the 10,000 word minimum goal I've set for myself. My computer at home has been having serious problems, to the point that I can't even turn it on sometimes. It's been very frustrating.

I do have other more important things to do too, related to studies for the beginning of this month too.

Good luck to everyone!

it sure counts toward something, Longcat! Man, I hate doing job apps. They're so time consuming and naggy.

I'll send you some luck, Ling. I hope it helps.

How is everyone doing? o.o I'm still managing 1.6k or more each day (the highest I've done is 2k don't worry I've only done that twice ). I've reached my first 10k, 40k more to go! xD I still don't quite trust myself, to make it the whole month yet. *cheers on the other people*

I'm pretty far behind, but I have a plan to catch up!
Mind you it isn't a complicated plan. Basically there is one step: Write more.

xD I've just been very distracted trying to get some other things taken care of around here... but we're one full week into NaNoWriMo, guys! Congratulations for everyone who is more or less on track with their goals (because that's no small feat!) And to all of y'all like me... we'll make it!

I know some location based groups do a lock-in write off kind of thing... would any of y'all be interested in doing a kind of push-yourself challenge sometime this month?

I'm very much behind, only have 1116 words all together. I went to a write-in today which was interesting to meet some of the local people also doing NaNoWriMo.
