Day 7 of NaNoWriMo – a questing and a streaking we will go.

Almost 20 000 words (perhaps I’ll reach that by the end of this post), and a 7 day streak! *insert wolf whistle cause I’m immature at times*. This is far more than I had hoped to achieve. I had hoped to maybe be at around 7000 words … just get something under my belt so that I didn’t have to look at a long list of failures this year.

Yes, I know. There were mitigating circumstances … but the thing is, for me, they still rate as failures. I probably have to work on that a little more through therapy – but let’s not dwell on that tonight.

To help try to regain a little focus I finally decided to utilise 2 accounts that I had created some time ago – one was to keep track of writing and one to keep track of routines etc. The writing one is the one I’m gunna get into here – it’s called 4thewords, and I’d forgotten about the account until I received emails from them with NaNoWriMo being on. So I headed over and reactivated my account. I’ll only be able to use it for this month – at this stage – but I plan to get the most out of it.

Basically, it’s a game, and a community, and there are challenges for writing, and you can win rewards. [I’m not doing it justice as I’m ready to go meet the sandman, but maybe go have a look and see what the fuss is about for yourself!]. Boy, does that deliver the dopamine! And I’m severely lacking in that apartment.

So, if you like to write, and you like to do quests etc, why not go over to 4thewords.com and sign up. Please be sure to use my referral code – HZBZR57645 – cause I wanna earn some crystals!  Anyway … if I don’t make 20 000 tonight with this post, I’ll make it early tomorrow with something else.
