Procratination..my evil nemisis strikes again!

PhotobucketI have attempted to put everything on my computer, but have only managed half a page so far, and that half a page has 5 different changes from what I wrote originally! Although I do like it better I cant help but wonder if nothing will stay the same. As Ive written more in my notebook different plot points change and even characters names. If someone read my "book" right now they would definately see that it is completely different from start to finish.

I can see now that Im going to have to edit about 20 times to make sure everything is right.

All in all Ive been doing alright. Ill write a page or two a day, which isnt really signifacant but is much much more than I ever have before so Im really proud of myself! Im still into the story and I havnt gotten to the good part yet. (Seeing as Im writting it I know exactly where it will be!) I know alot that I already want to change with the begining and want so bad to back track and change it now, but if I do that I will keep doing it and the story will never go forward. So I am going to say on this path and just keep writing.

Right now Im not getting into much detail, im just writing through what I know is going to happen and writing the major plot points, my first edit will be to put all the datail and the bulk of the book in. Then only 19 more edit sessions after that!! Pray for me!

Putting everything off!

So I havnt wrote in awhile I know! Our Computer broke so Ive been out when it comes to internet lately. Luckily for me my husbands step father rebuilds computers and made me an early Christmas present!! Yay Steve! lol I am so grateful! I havnt been online in so long I've forgotten all the wonderful distractions there are on here!!

As for my NaNoWriMo, well it too was put off, the computer was one reason, but my daughter and procrastination were big reasons as well. I have wrote more on my book, and have gotten at least 100 times further than any other book Ive started. I am in love with my story, Im not even sure how it will end, which makes me want to write even more, so I can find out!! haha I think Im going to try and transfer it to the computer and finish it from there, but Im not sure I want to yet. I think I get more inspiration when Im handwriting it. Theres something about seeing it there on paper and being able to flip back and forth that makes it more real. But, ofcourse I will have to put it on the computer eventually so transfering the little I hev now seems so much less daunting than trying to type in 500 pages.

I'll think on that and get back to you. Until then, Im going to look up some Harry Potter, and Twilight stuff! B uh Bye! :)
