Right now I feel like a very boring person. All of my free time is going towards either working or writing, and I can't (read: won't) share with you what I'm writing right now because it's a horrible mess of a first draft that may or may not all make sense by the end.
It's coming out in chunks that are chronologically out of order, yet I must write that way and hope that I can connect it all together.
Because this story started as one thing and has become another. The other may be more interesting, and it is certainly taking me in different ways, but it was certainly unexpected. The ending I had originally planned (read: thought of) may not actually end up how it all turns out.
But you know what? I'm okay with that. Because nothing is concrete until it's published and bound. So until then, I'm going to keep trucking through this awful novel and hope that some good nuggets of literary wonder come out of it.

And, as always,
Peace, love, and WRITE DAMNIT GET OFF THE INTERNET!
Seriously, don't stress. It may be ridiculously frustrating, but the whole point of NanoWrimo is to just get those pesky floating ideas out of your head and on to paper. You're doing something that a lot of people would never dream of doing. And don't forget, you're not alone! People around the world are experiencing the exact same thing(including Matt and myself!)
