The Clot.
I'm six days in. and a few thousand words behind. My little NaNo counter thingy says that I am going to finish on December 22nd if I keep up at the rate I'm going at. I can do this.
However, I have been doing my dishes more. And mowing. That seems to help. And, I'm rewatching Buffy season 7. [Personally, season six is my favorite. Jus' sayin'.]
And, I found a new tennis ball, so Kota loves me more.
See the reason for The Clot is when I write I have one rule: Let the characters take over. And I did. I let the story envelope me. And, in my mind the story changed from the thing I originally spent hours and hours painstakingly planning out.
So, now my plot has no ending.
This is one of those times where I have to let it envelope me to find a plot.
I'm gonna trust Joey for the moment. And, I might post an excerpt of aforementioned attempted novel tomorrow evening. Pending the time when I get home.
Off to write.
