NaNoWriMo Week 1 progress!

(Written last week)

So far I’ve met or exceeded the daily average goal: 1667 words a day. Sometimes it flows like water, sometimes it’s a muddle and words get squeezed out with effort. But something bigger than I’ve ever imagined is coming along.

It gives me a sense of what it takes to create art on a large scale – a mature project, for lack of a better word.

I have great hope for my novel, that it can be something that has the potential to have broad reach, impact, create controversy, or at least conversation. Something that draws on my unique set of experiences and makes something amazing out of them.

Week One: 12058 words.

Wish me good speed!
