NaNoWriMo

NaNoWriMo Observations, Day One

Fresh Ribbon

1. I can write more in an hour than I thought I could.

2. Outlines are for other people.

3. Creation is my favorite part anyway.

4. The story writes itself and I should have done this years ago.

5. I couldn’t do this on a manual typewriter. I hate that.

6. I can tell the problem won’t be getting to 50,000 words by month’s end. The problem will be forcing myself to step away from the novel and back into my daily responsibilities.

7. It’s delicious telling my Inner Editor to go to hell.

This typecast is brought to you on Alice, a witty debutante of an Olympia SF that – if my life were different – would definitely be used in Typewriter Brigading the NaNoWriMo. When I figure out what I’m doing wrong with my camera, I’ll share photos of Alice and another FABULOUS Olympia, both delicious cursive hand-me-downs from the best typing buddies a girl ever had.
