This is a census for Tumblrers doing NaNoWriMo.

Reblog if you’re participating! I figure a Tumblr-wide support group may come in handy…

Caught up a bit today. I put in my essay, which I’m guessing gave me about 1200 words, plus 200 words of context for the essay to be mentioned. Then I wrote about 700 words at school/rehearsal.
I hope this means I’m out of whatever writing funk I was in. Of course it would happen hell week. D:

1300 words behind. D:

I can’t write because I am just too tired to. It’s really frustrating.

Reasons I can do 50,000 words in a month:

  • I talk about random things a lot that I can sneak into my novel
  • I ramble naturally

Seriously. I explained my sexuality to someone and it added 500 words. [500 intelligent words, opposed to some of the utterly ridiculous metaphors I have used in order to boost my word count.]

It’s nice, though.

Random girl rants about Miley Cyrus at the cash register.

Get 300 words.

Poor Alice. She just wanted to pay for a magazine and then the girl in front of her in line starts going on about how people shouldn’t care about Miley Cyrus. And then the girl disappears.
