Sooo...I've been writing for the past four and a half hours, or trying to anyway, and I've only added about 1k words on to my attempt at a novel.
2866 / 50000 words. 6% done!
I'm definitely getting more done than I expected...but the novel itself is so...amateur. And I know I'm not any sort of writer, but it really sucks. =P Perhaps it's because it's of the young adult/youth genre...and a lot of times the writing in those isn't spectacular. But since I haven't focused my life on vocabulary and elegance of words, I'm not expecting that to come out in my novel.
I guess I'm okay with that, as my goal to write a novel was simply to write the novel, not to write a good one. And it's not like I'm going to have it published or even thinking of it, so that's a load off my mind. It's only the 13th. Let's see where my two days off takes me.
