How is Nanowrimo going for you?
Here have a brownie and tell me about it…
Being a Nanowrimo newbie I wasn’t really sure how it was going to work out and the first 3 days didn’t bode well. I returned to work to find someone had constructed a new building with all the stuff that was supposed to have been done the day before yesterday. Then got a phone call about another job, ‘Yes we’ll move you to another country but can you first take a few tests?’
I hate tests, I really hate aptitude tests*, I really really hate timed aptitude tests…
By Thursday night I had about 2000 words, very little sleep and a headache that needed its own pillow.
So not a good start then. 
Friday was my day off and I glued myself to my keyboard playing catch-up, I was still there by Saturday night and crossed the 10,000 milestone 41 minutes before midnight! Hurray!
At some point on Saturday I remembered that I have a concert to get to tonight and that I needed to make brownies. I’ve never really baked anything but brownies seem to be important in my story so I thought I should at least see how hard they are to make. Seems a bit extreme for one paragraph but it’s chocolate so… it’s chocolate!
What have I learned? That there really is such a thing as too much chocolate (trust me), because my flat smells like a bakery and I can’t eat another bite.
And YouTube really can teach you something 
*select which box doesn’t fit in which column – wtf?!
Too much chocolate? I am skeptical of these claims. Deeeeply skeptical.
In NaNo news, I’m rolling along at a steady pace. I’m above par, which is all that matters for right now. Good to hear you’re making progress as well!
Just me there is. It only last a few hours but there is such a thing as too much…
Well done you!
Yay for chocolate. I’ve gone back to kicking off my mornings with some caramilk goodness, but can’t keep munching on it all day or I’ll never get to sleep.
Nanowrimo is going great. I just hit 17.5 thousand words, whoohoo!
What is “caramilk”?
YAY – that is impressive.
