NaNoWriWhat?

OK, so my attempt at writing a novel in a month was a little less stellar than what I had expected. I only made it to about 18K instead of 50K. But I was on track for the first two weeks, then I just stopped writing. So what are my lame excuses for not finishing?

  • Tryptophan.
  • I'm kinda lazy. I have a tendency for starting things and then not fi
I convinced someone at work to participate and they started a week late and finished a week early, so in a sense, I won by proxy, right? Right?

I did enjoy the time I spent writing, and I had some funny things happen in my book. Maybe it worth finishing. Well, probably not.
