MUST HAVE MOOOOORE! Another NaNoWriMo Update


The month of November is coming to an end a little quicker than I am ready for. Last week, I was all pumped with my book and how far I was coming along...

This week, I find that I spend more time procrastinating with endless sheets of virtual bubble wrap (oh my, this stuff is so addicting!!!) and just when I think I'm ready to work on more of my story, I press the 'Fresh Sheet' button, hear the breathy and fanatical voice say "Must have mooooore," and I'm off, furiously popping another sheet.

Yes, I am sleep deprived, hyped up on coffee, and pulling all of my hair out, just as I predicted {in this post} last month. I do still have a shot at getting my 50,000 word goal met... if I write close to 2,500 words a day for the next 6 days.

ARGH!

Okay, back to bubble wrap popping. Must have MOOOOORE!

Love the manic mode! They need a step-on-it mode. There is something about stepping on a sheet of giant bubble wrap that just...hmmm...I can't even explain it. But I'm sure you get it.
