Thought no.313- Giving Up

I don’t particularly like the term giving up it contains negative connotations. But it is the phrasing I am going to have to use as I have decided to throw in the towel for NaNoWriMo this year. The past few days have been spent me trying to catch up and I have gotten very little else done because my focus has been on writing. I know I could continue and hit 50,000 but right now it is too much to try and do that and manage college, college work, work work, and actually getting time to myself, and doing these thoughts per day. So I am taking one for myself and giving up. I’m okay with it though, it’s not as if I have lost what I have managed to already achieve and I am not bummed to stop writing because frankly writing this story was like pulling these. The inspiration and love for the story just wasn’t there. So In order to make my life easier and less stressful I am done with NaNoWriMo this year.

Thought no.309 – Write like the wind

I’m quite far behind in NaNoWriMo at the moment mostly due to the fact I have been super busy and that I restarted on the second day and then wasn’t even able to hit day one’s target. I have managed to write over 2,000 words today and am still powering through to try and catch up and actually make it possible to have 50,000 words by the end of this month. Ideally I’d be able to get at least 9,000 words today but that’s a push. So I’m going to aim for 8,000 but ideally it’d be 9,000 or even 10,000. Wish me luck.

Thought no.303 – End of October

Today is the last day of October, tomorrow brings in November and winter shall begin to replace autumn, and Christmas shall replace Halloween. Two months left until 2014 is over and the aim for this blog too. I’d like to try and not miss a day these next two months, just a little mini target within this huge target. And I also plan on starting NaNoWriMo 2014 tomorrow, I really need to stop giving myself projects, I know for certain I will not be able to successfully juggle everything.

Thought no.286 – Brain

I feel like my brain is beginning to run out of space, as if information just cannot be obtained. My brain is a sponge that has already taken in all the water it can, it is fully saturated.

In other news NaNoWriMo is next month, I did it last year and succeeded and I honnestly don’t know if I’ll manage to do it this year. I haven’t a clue what I will write and the fact is, I do this everyday, so I can I really do this, NaNoWriMo, plus college, plus homework, plus part-time job, plus sorting out UCAS. I don’t know if I could manage it all, I mean, I’ll need time to myself, just to aimlessly do nothing and I really do not want to overstress myself with trying to everything, I already am having difficulties keeping atop everything now.

But I haven’t written, not properly for ages, ever since I finished the first draft of the final book of my trilogy I haven’t written a lot I haven’t even gone back to re-read. (I hate re-reading work). I love writing though, so maybe I will do NaNoWriMo, or at least try. I suppose I could combine the two together. Write the story on here, a post a day, a whole story up here in the month of November.

I’ll make my decision soon.
