It is going slowly. At this pace, I might crack 15,000 words by the end of the month. Not good enough. I must step up my game now. (I am trying to keep a running word-count widget on the left-hand side of this page, but its operation has thus far been intermittent. You can follow my progress at the NaNoWriMo site, if you so desire.) Anyhow. Below, you will find a wordle.net representation of my ‘novel’ – which, among other weirdnesses, was useful in that it has informed me that I am using the word ‘little’ way too much.
The problem seems to be a time-management thing. Things would be easier if I did not have to pause to eat, sleep or clean up after myself. For the moment, I continue to envy all you happily-married, working professional, well-read writers out there. I know you exist. And I loathe you.
Also, these past 30 minutes I have spent constructing my wordle and blogging about it? I should have been writing. Damn you, internet!
I am intrigued by the words “dewlicked” and “hoadly.”
