I thin...:P The plain 50K is an impressive goal too! I think it's great that you're able to keep writing into December if you have more to write. NaNoWriMo gives me motivation to draft, but when I don't have the fun deadline and the fun competition, drafting is no fun and I avoid it. :P Best of luck to you too! :) <br /><br />Thank you for commenting! :) Liz Brookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15823595869843889438noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7894299613938319589.post-3746896308329136112016-10-19T10:54:16.616-07:002016-10-19T10:54:16.616-07:00Wow those are some big goals!

I ate a muse fairy when I was a toddler. Hey, 7,000 words in a day is still impressive! And there's no shame in writing more slowly. Your first drafts are probably a lot less messy than mine. :P Ooh, you're doing NaNoWriMo? *happy dance* What is your username? I would love to add you as a buddy. AND BEST OF LUCK TO YOU TOO. :) <br /><br />Thank you for commenting! :) Liz Brookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15823595869843889438noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7894299613938319589.post-83539120053353094922016-10-18T15:48:57.057-07:002016-10-18T15:48:57.057-07:00My goodness Liz, those goals are insane!!! HOW DO ...My goodness Liz, those goals are insane!!! HOW DO YOU EVEN DO THAT??? My record-breaking writing day was 7,000 words, and I was so proud of myself. I'm just not a fast writer :/ I am super excited for this Nano, though, even though I'll have the typical 1,667 word goal because I usually can't do more than that.

Why am I writing so much? So I just decided to go with it. :P <br /><br />Thank you, and thank you for commenting! :) Liz Brookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15823595869843889438noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7894299613938319589.post-46084340540158309962016-10-18T04:53:14.923-07:002016-10-18T04:53:14.923-07:00Haha, I'm so glad you don't hate me for ov...Haha, I'm so glad you don't hate me for overachieving. *laughs and cries simultaneously* I always worry people will get angry at me for writing so much. :P BUT I HAVE TO BE THE ALPHA. I mean, what? But hey, I think it's awesome that you're able to write so much in such a short period of time. And I totally know what you mean about feeling sick after staring at the screen for so long. I need to figure out ways to combat that. Aww, thank you! You are too! :) <br /><br />I'm thinking that must be the case. They seem to be designed to snap on, but then not designed to stay snapped on for long. :P I'm glad it's just them coming off, though, not them breaking off permanently. That would stink. <br /><br />I'm working on editing the majority of my blog posts ahead of time, and I probably won't read all that much. I'm not sure how many books I'll tackle, maybe just one or two, or not even that many. I'm planning to spend the majority of my time typing. :P But I will be doing some Netflix to recharge my brain, so... XD Ooh, that's a good idea. I will have to do that! It's like you're my external brain. *awards you cake* <br /><br />Thank you for commenting! :) Liz Brookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15823595869843889438noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7894299613938319589.post-22910808597323912172016-10-18T04:49:06.210-07:002016-10-18T04:49:06.210-07:00Thank you!

I'm more like an explosion. Get in. Write 20K+ for 5 days. THEN LEAVE MAJESTICALLY IN TEARS. *nods* I just can't keep myself focused for longer than a few days of writing?! But I did write 130K in 5 days a month ago, although on the 5th day I actually made myself physically ill from staring at the screen too long and I thought I was going to puke. hahaa. OH THE WRITERS LIFE. (Also 35K in one day is <i>amazing</i>.) I'm just in awe of you, Liz!! YOU ARE SO AMAZING.<br /><br />Also is there something about Mac keys that make them disagreeable? My O, U and B keys all like to give me trouble. -_-<br /><br />Oh, and will you be blogging or reading during all of this? Or do you literally just type for ever waking hour during November? *whispers* You should give us like a "day in the life of NaNoing" post sometime. ;D :DCG @ Paper Furyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14954615708675952085noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7894299613938319589.post-29164431945868255162016-10-17T10:19:06.134-07:002016-10-17T10:19:06.134-07:00Wow!
