Nano Day 10

Today's Words: 1993
Month to Date: 20041
 
Possibly the fastest 20K words I've ever written.
 
A friend of mine suggests I should be able to write even faster. That I'm sloughing. Since, as he puts it, it's not like I have to upend my life so much to participate in Nano.
 
In response, I say: Yeah. Well.
 
I did use Nano (and the end of DSL) as a good time to rejigger my daily schedule. Now I get up at 8-ish in the morning. Instead of, well, variably later than 8. I get more done when I get up about 8. So it's a good thing. The hard part is getting to bed early enough that getting up at 8 is even feasible. I've been self-employed, working from home, since 1999. It's hard to not stay up as late as I can. For no other reason than: I can. Wouldn't you?
 
Still, getting up earlier I get more done than getting up later. Not entirely sure why.
 
My standard Nano Day this month:

Get up (yawn)
Breakfast (yum)
Workout (sigh)
Shower (warm)
Write (type-type-type)
Lunch (leftovers or frozen?)
Write some more (if I haven't hit 2K words yet)
Marketing (of various sorts)
Time Wasting (forums, personal email)
Dinner (reminds me: need meat)
Family Time (Netflix! DVR!)
Customer Support (makes TV more watchable)

 
Next month I'll have to slot in some development time for The Journal. New Years will be looming by then.
