NaNo update!: So, yesterday NaNoWriMo started. I wrote over 2000 words and now it's after eleven today and haven't written anything, mostly because I had to help Dad in hte shop and I slept in for almost two hours (I also fell asleep while writing yesterday. It was at Mom's piano studio. She had a student. Awkward).
I know many Wrimos are terrified to get started, and I'm writing this to encourage.
It's hard to step out and try new things for many of us. We're terrified we'll do it wrong. And you know what, you will get this wrong.
Every great novel ever written had a terrible first draft.
That's the point in NaNoWriMo! To ignore your inner editor and let yourself write a novel. Sure the diting is absolutely horrendous, but that's what December is for.
Now, why are you reading this? Stop pretending it's National Novel Procrastination Month and go write!
