And it begins!

So we are in the 4th day of NaNoWriMo and hopefully things are going well for everyone! I myself have hit a little snag and have decided to change up my story. Instead of being completely in journal format I am going to have some third person narrative in order to better tell the story which is kind of scary because if you're like me you are good (fast in in the nano world) at one type of writing and third person ain't it. Hopefully I'll get do well with this new transition.

Anyways I hope everyone is doing wonderfully and if you are not remember that it is just the first week! No need to fret, if you are having trouble finding time during the week days remember that you don't need to sit down and write all 1,667 words a day at one time. Take 10 minutes to write whenever you can. This is a tip fitness experts suggest in order to fit exercise into your day so why not writing? This way you won't feel overwhelmed by trying to reach your word count in one sitting and it won't feel like you are taking so much time out of your day!

On the other hand, if you do have time to sit down and write why not join in your region's write-ins? There Municipal Liaisons for each region and it is solely their job to motivate and gather WriMos from the area for write-ins where everyone meets at a library or coffee shop and shares their woes and triumphs and makes tons of progress on their word count. If you do not know where you can find your ML or write-ins just go to the edit user info section of "My NaNoWriMo" and find your state and town. You should get emails from the ML after you register on there and they will let you know when write-ins are happening etc.

Moral of the story: don't fret it is only week one. be creative when it comes to finding time to write-it IS possible. go to write-ins!
