Writer's Block

Well.... yesterday I was so close. My plot took a twist toward the end (that I did not plan) and came to a logical conclusion at 47,000 or so words. What to do? I can't very well quit there since I am doing this for NaNoWriMo.

There were a few characters mentioned only in one chapter in passing that I went back and made new chapters about them. Then I had a couple of short chapters that I elaborated on.

I kept writing yesterday until I just had to get ready to go to the hospital. I was hoping to reach the 50K and then have it validated before I left, but I ran out of time.

Today as I waited for my husband to pick me up at the hospital, I did quite a bit of people watching. Then I came right home and typed out those last 1600 words. I'm validated and I printed out my certificate.

Now I can go wash that goop out of my hair that they used for those little sensors they put on your head for the test. I didn't want to wash my hair at the hospital and then go out into the 10 degree weather with wet hair.

Now I have some first hand experience if any of my characters happen to go to the hospital.
