november 8-9th

daily word count: 370
~

*update*

guys please don't be disappointed in me @FireEyes is already disappointed enough but NaNo been stressing me out like crazy and I'm not saying I'm giving up but
i'm kinda giving up? like, I cannot see myself hitting the 50k without another mental breakdown and honestly i've been so busy lately than 1.7k a day is nearly iNcONcEIVABLE on my week to week basis.

I AM GOING TO KEEP WRITING!!! just giving myself a little grace, probably not gonna be running too wild anymore and I'll still be writing during November, just my end goal for this novel will be stretched out over a little more of a reasonable amount of time that I'll be able to healthily span out and plan (;_ _) thanks for the support, we'll see how the rest of this month goes <3
True love is the greatest thing in the world
except for a nice mlt
Wonderin' if your heart's still open
And if so I wanna know what time it shuts

Can't you tell that I'll write a song about nothing
To tell you that you're something else

Way to listen to yourself and give yourself grace <3
There's nothing wrong with slowing down and intentionally NOT hitting 50k! You've written more than 0, and that means progress :)
It does not do to dwell on dreams and forget to live.

Ask a Therapist!
I want to beta read your novel!

Ask me anything. Talk to me about anything. Seriously. My PM box is always open <3
  








Why should Caesar just get to stomp around like a giant while the rest of us try not to get smushed under his big feet? Brutus is just as cute as Caesar, right? Brutus is just as smart as Caesar, people totally like Brutus just as much as they like Caesar, and when did it become okay for one person to be the boss of everybody because that's not what Rome is about! We should totally just stab Caesar!
