I don’t suffer from the notorious second week NaNo slump. But I do I suffer from the 3rd week ‘where the hell am I going with this pile of drivel’ NaNo blues. And it is about to hit me.
NaNo writing tip number six
Just keep going.
This may need repeating.
Just
Keep
GoingAnd one last time: JUST KEEP GOING
My 2013 NaNo novel is called Chasing Credit. I’m aiming for 60,000 words by the end of November.
Oh, Ruth, you’re my best friend. I’m having the same thoughts, and I feel wrung out with the emotions of the characters who have fallen out, made up, fallen out, wanted to kill each other. I have hand ache, wrist ache, neck ache. And this is what I’d be like if I was a full time writer!!!!!!! I will keep going, and you too… Writing more by hand now, and then will type it up later…

Yes, who would have thought this writing business would be so darn tough? Both mentally and physically. NaNo is (in sporting terms) an ultramarathon. Keep going!
