I wrote another 348 words or so today at lunch time and who knows, I might even write a few more later tonight, but yesterday after I crossed the NaNoWriMo finish line I kept writing all night. I’ll have to set up my own system of figuring word counts and progress because those silly little bar charts are way more motivating than I could imagine.
Good for you. Me knew someone who loved charts and graphs. You can make them talk to you.
Word counts, bar charts, personal best times for required exercise (I have a million ways to subvert or downright avoid, damn!), and all kinds of goals and reminders, taken on willingly, really do help. It wonderful that you kept writing all night!
