Trying to survive November with writing at least 50k words and hopefully this account will help. Still looking for people who are also taking part. Maybe we can motivate each other? Or rant about our stories getting out of control?

What started as a writing exercise ten years ago is finally turning into a real book, one I'm now working on with my best friend. So excited, stressed and happy about it.

By the way... I finished the not Nanowrimo with 40k words, I wrote everyday in November and after November I still wanted to write more. Didn't need a break from being creative like I did in the last years. So not-Nanowrimo and doing at my own pace seems to be better.

I've just reached 6620 words in my personal quest to finish the Nanowrimo without the Nanowrimo. Gonna celebrate with a much-needed dog walk in the dark.

It was 8.30 in the morning and we we were drinking our first beer. But we are at the airport and on holidays. So different time, different space.

I ignored social media and the whole internet for a whole week because everything just felt bad. I am here again. (still hating christmas time working in a bookshop. I really need a new job... People are so pretentious. Just read what you love and not what some critics command you to love)

When finishing Nanowrimo I can not write for weeks because I lost my words. This morning when I went into the forest with my dog Orla I found my words again. And now I want to write a winter feelgood short story, that takes place in my fantasy-world. Which actually takes place in a desert. Well...

For #Caturday: a poignant photo by Paul Koudounaris of a beloved pet's grave. Despite popular belief, the cat's name was *not* Dewey (that was the family's surname). "He was only a cat" but human enough to to be a great comfort in hours of loneliness and pain. 💔 One for @catsofyore.bsky.social
A photo of a cat's tombstone. At the top is the name DEWEY, followed by the dates, 1898-1910, and the inscription.

I accidentally gave a character the name of a person I hate and now that I have noticed this outrageous mistake, I can´t unsee it and hate poor Matty with all my guts. #nanowrimo

I´ll write again tomorrow. Wrote 38000 words so far, so it shouldn´t be a problem to reach the nanowrimo goal, although I wasn´t able to do anything during the last 4 days because I felt like shit and had the worst headache in my entire life. I was in such a bad mood. Hated everything and everyone

There are people in the garden next to our house. Usually there aren't. Obviously this is a problem.

And my dreams are in point. I dreamt that my quails had babys and I lost them because they were so small that they could fit on my fingernails. I really want some Baby quails. But normal sized would be better.

Got sick and did not write a word in the last two days. Didn't even think about it. Sleeping was more important and oh...how I slept. I am really good at sleeping. Should get paid for it, that's how good I am.

Wrote only 250 words yesterday, but I skyped with my bestie and we planned our trip to Prague and she also helped me to get unstuck in my nanowrimo story. So I hope I´ll be able to write more today.

Es ist schon sehr ironisch, dass ich jedes Mal googeln muss wie man das Wort beschreibt, bevor ich es benutze: in·tel·lek·tu·ell Spricht jetzt halt nicht für mich. Ich bin die erste, die das zugibt.

Only wrote 1294 words today but my word count is at 30k! Pretty excited. #nanowrimo

Don´t know how that happened, but the soundtrack of my nanowrimo story is a random 1990s/2000 playlist on spotify. And I like it a little bit too much. (Also: the story doesn´t take place in this era... it´s fantasy in a fantasy world. There is no Mmmbop)

I hate this emoji so much: 😉 My blood ist boiling right now because I just used it. It should die a horrible death. It should be crushed, it should be quatered and gutted. Someone should stab in its stupid eye. (I would love to know where my anger comes from, maybe I should sleep more.)

Now I can go to sleep. Yay! I am pretty happy about the way Nanowrimo is going for me this year.

I am so tired. But I need and want to write a few words but I also need to sleep. Living is hard. Nanowrimo is hard. And fun. But hard.

I would never let my dog of the leash or my cats outside if I would live in an area with crocs, alligators or snakes. Don´t get me wrong. I love these animals but I also love my pets. We have wild boars and probably a wolf. That´s enough for me. #RandomThoughtsWhileWatchingYoutube

1530 words for Nanowrimo today. But I started writing at 23:15... or something like that. So it´s not that bad? And I am not working tomorrow, there should be enough time, energy and desire to write more because I am getting to the really interesting part of my story.

The plan for today was to get to 20k. But the week was stressful. I just slept and walked my dog. Now I want to at least get to the daily wordcount but it's tough. (And I really crave rice because they are cooking some in the scene I am trying to write right now) #nanowrimo

colfreezwrites.bsky.social @colfreezwrites.bsky.social · 04/11/2023
Sooo.... This just happened. Did not think I could make it today because I am so fucking tired. But I just jumped to a scene I wanted to write since I started my adventure with Lux... And here we are! #nanowrimo

Aiming for 15k tonight for Nanowrimo. They are not helping.

So...Nanowrimo is going well so far. But my sleeping schedule is destroyed and not because I spend my waking hours with wirting, it´s because I spend those hours with this one cute scene playing over and over again in my head. (And of course some good old existential dread.

My personal goal for today was at least 7500 words. Not sure if I will make it. Just putting it out there for some good old fashioned personal pressure. Yay, Nanowrimo

May I introduce you to Orla, my plotting partner. Being in the forest with her always helps a lot when I am stuck in a story

Normally I start a new story for every Nanowrimo. This time I am trying to continue a thing I am currently working on. Hopefully my guys and gods will keep me going. But I am pretty sure they will, they are quite interesting, stupid, silly and of course very loud in my head...like all the time.

colfreezwrites.bsky.social @colfreezwrites.bsky.social · 31/10/2023
Nanowrimo is starting in a few hours and I finally decided which story I will be writing. So... That´s a win. I guess?
