February Writing Challenge: Days 8-10
Feb. 10th, 2021 11:04 pmI! Started! Writing! The Thing!
Got about 800 words written, and oh man - listen, I love NaNo, but it is NICE to feel like I can take my time a little, y'know? Go back over a paragraph and feel out different things, read back and make little edits here and there. I poked at it for an hour and started to get a feel for it. I am not obsessing about whether or not it's perfect. It's not. But that doesn't mean it isn't good, or at least a good first go.
Now that I've got a bit of a start, I may try to give myself a little more time for the next few days until I get it done. But if not, I'll at least take a little time to either add on, or flesh out things that I encounter or make up as I go. (A couple of details and characters already popped into my brain... and also there may be another element to the ending now that I hadn't considered before. Interesting!)
