Mid-Month NaNoWriMo Update
Nov. 17th, 2010 10:56 amSo, as it turns out, I'm not writing much here while NaNoWriMo is on. I am unsurprised by this, on the whole, but I'm hoping I'll get back into the habit of posting here come December.
This update is brought to you largely by nice new anti-anxiety medication; they come with an initial period of drowsiness which shouldn't last any longer than a week or so, apparently. And I'm still in that first week, not really feeling capable of the massive feat of concentration that is sitting upright, never mind working on NaNo owrds. [I'm actually going to leave that typo there as an example of the medication / coherence interface.] This short update I can just about face; more than that, less so.
I'm running behind on NaNo, mostly due to integrating a new job into my day-to-day schedules. I have about 16k against a target of about 26k but I'm not unhappy with that since 16k is a lot of words for the amount of time I haven't had to write. I've got some time later this week for massive catch-up so we shall see what happens.
On the plus side, I'm very pleased about the "having medication" thing; it's part of a sensible and integrated occupational therapy programme and with any luck it's going to work!
