I am amazed by the total of words I write the last days. You remember the post two days ago? Yes, the one where I said that I stopped calculating because it’s kind of distracting and demotivating me. What dit I in this post without being aware of it? Right, I calculated. But this was not for me. It was for the fellow NaNo’s who are maybe procastinating writing out of the same reason: demotivation through calculating. If you continu to calculate that the goal is not reachable, it will be unreachable. Stop doing this. Just do it like I described two day’s ago and you will be amazed too. Even if you don’t have a clue what to write about. It will just pour out of your fingertips. Believe it or not. It doesn’t matter to me.
I think that after I have written I may calculate again. And again it is for demonstration purpose only and it’s no rocket sience but just to show you, that you have plenty of time left, even though you maybe laying behind with more than ten- of fifteenthousand words.
That sounds weird, but it isn’t. When I started today my wordcounter stood on 19306 words. Today, just like yesterday, I had some distractions, like cleaning the rabbit’s cage and surfing the internet to look for virtually nothing. Just like you did. If it wasn’t you, look at somebody behind you. Yes, he was it. But don’t point your finger, as he looks a little bit stranger than you do. However, as a result I started writing pretty late, but I used the NaNo-cult-weapon ‘Write of Die’ that keeps me focused (sorry that I have to repeat myself this often). At the end of the day my wordcount is increased to 23174. That means that I wrote 3868 words today. I am sure that I would not have wrote this amount without the tool. I just have set the goal on 400 words in ten minutes and did this a couple of times. As you see on the number of words, it would be 10 times. You see? In the time of a movie, I wrote at least double as much as I would have wrote without this focusing tool.
I wish you all a good night and promise that I now will shut up about the tool and keep it short and just about the wordcount.
See you next time!
