Today is the last day of NaNo. I ended with 3397 words.
...
Yeah. I pretty much gave up on the 18th (I thought writing my daily word count would motivate me). I didn't even make it 1/6th of the way. Well now at least I know I don't have to pursue a career in writing.
I wrote about this to my penpal, and she told me something that I think applies to me to. She said that she is good at writing, but not good at storytelling. Thats how I felt during this thing. I always think of cool things to write, or an interesting way to portray things, but my plot was just okay. It was suppose to be a mystery/drama, but it wasn't working out. I didn't know how to make clues or red herrings or how to make people care about my characters.
Tomorrow is a new month. I want to do another project, but I don't know what about yet. I've actually never finished a 30 day/month challenge. Yesh. Hopefully I'll figure it out by tomorrow.
