And how in the world do you have...I just added you! And how in the world do you have over 14,000 words?!?! I don't think you need any tips--but whatever you've done to get that far so quickly, please share! :) This is my second year doing NaNo, and I'm not sure I'll have quite as much time to dedicate to it. I thought I was doing well until I saw your word count! :)<br /><br />Seriously, though, the best advice I can give you is don't stress about it. Especially with your current word count, don't put too much pressure on yourself to write x amount of words a day. Yeah, it's fun to actually hit the 50,000 word mark and win, but if you're stressed to the point where it's not fun anymore, then it's not worth it. And, don't stress about the quality of your writing. No first draft is perfect (or, it's extremely rare, including for published authors). Don't be like me and edit as you write--just keep writing! You'll have plenty of time to edit and revise later.<br /><br />Good luck! :)Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05951799381063340483noreply@blogger.com
