Happy new year!

I hope everyone has a truly blessed 2011.

I fail

Well despite the best of intentions I didn't increase my word count much since my last blog post. So you could say I failed at Nanowrimo. Or you could say I succeeded at trying.

Between governmental paperwork, doctor appointments, dental appointments, my daughter getting her wisdom teeth out, and her panic attacks I have had a busy time of things. I have actually been exhausted, and so I am glad I didn't push myself too hard.

Another wall

Here I am working hard at my novel, which is a change since I've procrastinated it almost constantly. But I've hit a rather unexpected wall.

I am at about 10,000 words. I have 40,000 more to go. But I am almost at the end of the story that I had outlined.

What to do, what to do.

Do I just finish it the way I have it and not worry about winning Nanowrimo?

Or do I add more to it? Perhaps an extra few chapters or more characters. Maybe even a huge flashback sequence would need to be added.

I just don't know what I want to do.

But I do know that chocolate will make me feel better.
