NaNoWriMo '14 - Day 1 Report

Start of the second day, and no progress has been made.

Not a word, letter, space--I don't even have a title yet. Nada. As little as you can have in a manuscript. I blame my girlfriend coming over--how dare she be so cute that I can't work?--and my other work-in-progress, keeping me from my new work.

Multiple works-in-progress can be a bit overwhelming. On one hand, it's good to have a wide spread of work to keep you busy. As long as you're writing something, you're doing a good job. On the other hand, sometimes it's a little distracting. My other work is a cyberpunk fantasy story. My NaNoWriMo novel is an urban fantasy. The main characters in my older work are all adults. My NaNoWriMo cast are teens.

And I plan on turning them both into trilogies.

Am I just mental? Crazy? The hell am I doing, going on piling my plate with so much writing? I have no clue. Probably totally mental, going ahead with this silly writing trek. Time will tell...but, by tonight, I plan on getting at least 5k words done.
