NaNoWriMo Journal (for archiving)

I'm moving this tab to a blog post for the sake of reworking my tabs and archiving the information within so I don't lose it. ;) ~Jessica


NANOWRIMO JOURNAL NOVEMBER 2011

DAY ONE: November 1
Goal: 1667
Achieved: 1826
Comments: I got started on it at midnight, spent 1 1/2 hours writing--almost half done. I ended up dreaming about updating my NaNo writing count several times and tossing and turning over it. I think I'll be better tonight, lol. So happy to have gotten that much accomplished in one day!

DAY TWO: November 2
Goal: 3334
Achieved: 3438
Comments: I was up until 2 AM last night, which made me tired today for work. I can't keep doing that. So, I'll be cutting myself off at midnight every night no matter what.

DAY THREE: November 3
Goal: 5001
Achieved: 6072

DAY FOUR: November 4
Goal: 6668
Achieved: 8193
