Well, it has been a little slower going today. I managed to get in over 1700 words in my last sitting which brings me up to just a little over the 9k point. I’m sure I’ll be able to put in another 2k or so before the end of the day.
I’m sometimes plagued by doubts that I’ll have enough ideas to finish off the 50k, but I’m working hard on sticking to it. Chantale’s encouragement has really made a difference, I must admit. And keeping an eye on the rankings has also given me a kick in the ouchies every now and again 🙂
My own personal nemesis seems to be a general desire/ drive to succeed and finish, while at the same time be true to my self and motivation and get the best out of this experience as possible.
Of course, the idea of getting to the 50k before the end of the month and thus spending the rest of the month cheering everyone else on does hold something of an appeal for me… 🙂
