Nanowrimo Day #2 Report

Let go

Day two, and I’m up to 2747 words total. I logged 1702 today.

And, ironically, I did it by letting go of the pressure to get that many words.

In case you haven’t done the math, 1700 words a day is about what Nanowrimo-ers figure will get you 50,000 words by the end of the month. That gives you 1,000 words of wiggle room in case you miss a day or fall behind.
