Puttering Along

I’m still working on my NaNoWriMo novel. The month is just about halfway over, and I’m just about halfway done, which is a good sign. I’m continuously surprising myself with how long I’ve been able to keep this up. If I were writing a novel outside of this self-imposed deadline, I would have become self-conscious of the perceived terribleness of my writing at around the third or fourth chapter or so, then given up. As it stands now, I do have some cringe-worthy moments, [1] but I also have some fun and thought-provoking moments to balance them out. My characters are really starting to come alive, and I get the feeling that I’m really going to miss them once the month is over.

I’ll get back to talking about games next month. Pinky swear.

Footnotes:
  1. Of course, I’ve realised that I can always edit these later, and the point right now is to get a first draft done. Because as they say, all the shiny new books in the bookstore started out as unpolished first drafts.
