Day 26: Always Choose Your Story

Day 26 brings with it a word count of 43,333 words. I ended the night just over 44K.

For the second time in NaNo this year, I ran out of time for writing and I had to choose between writing a blog post or writing on my story, and for the second time, I chose my story.

Always choose your story!

This is how you take the push of writing (working through plot problems, unruly characters, dragging scenes, forgotten items, etc.) and turn it into an outright shove.

This shove will take you from the person that types along, but stalls when things get difficult and uncertain, to the person that writes and does because it is who you are. Your novel will thank you.

So, as we head into the final stretch, are you prepared to shove?
