Nanowrimo kicks writer's block's arse!

[mab]

Oh boy. I've had writer's block since October of 2010 and haven't been able to write ANYTHING. It's been hell, but last night, about an hour before the first of November, I was chatting with a former writing buddy and she convinced me to go for Nano this year! I'm stoked.

I actually managed to get 2057 words out last night... I wrote from Midnight until 6 this morning. I feel like my beginning has definite potential and I'm not hating the words that I've produced, which is a big bonus.

It is a bit cumbersome, trying to breastfeed an infant and type one handed, but it's totally doable.

Writer's block, you can kiss my ass!

I'm back baby!

Oh. I'm doing original fiction for nano this year. I can't get in the fanfic groove, but I'm sure it will come back eventually.

Yay! I'm doing Nano, too! It's so hard with a 10 month old. XDDD Good luck!

I hear ya. My baby is 5.5 months and does not like to lose my attention for a minute. Good luck to you too!

Oh Mab that is so great! I'm so glad you are writing something. I told you it would come back. Just had to give it time. :)

I could never have done it without my writing buddies [Bad username or site: @ livejournal.com] and [Bad username or site: @ livejournal.com] Our word wars produce so much. Last nights session was just like old times.

Much ♥ for NaNo.

BTW, if you want to word war (any time, not just during NaNo), here's a handy-dandy comm: http://word-war.livejournal.com/9997.html (link to today's daily post)

You can join & any member can post the daily entry. Without joining, you can still comment to the daily posts, to start a thread/word war.

Next one starting at 2:00 EST (~12 minutes from now).

OMG... I love your icon. Can I borrow it?

Thanks so much for the link. I'll look into that comm for sure if I have an opportunity to write when my writing buds are busy. :D

I found the artist to credit and left her a comment. Thanks again for the link.
