Nanowrimo Day 2

I did well the first day of rambling on paper. I put 2042 words towards my 50,000 word goal and, perhaps started clarifying some of my idea. I notice that now that I am out of school it is not quite the chore to write that it was last year. Or maybe I just want it more this year. I mean, I added a blog to my output solely to clear my head while pumping out a novel.

Today is day 2 of the journey and I managed another 1721 words. I did find a cool (in theory) widget that displays a running total of your Nanowrimo output along with a bar showing your progress towards goal. Unfortunately it did not work when I tried to put it on this web page. I notice that the Nanowrimo web site has been terribly unresponsive this time. It was supposed to be improved over last year but so far it is a lot worse. I understand they had some power failures on the first day that they had to recover from. I hope it is not a trick to get people to donate to them. Yeesh, I'll have to slip them a tenner for the privlege of stressing my self and my family out for a month. I am sure it will be money well spent.
