I have not been writing lately, because I have been reading. I am hoping to get back into writing today, but I don't think I will be able to get the 20k words goal.

TBH, I probably won't either. But that's okay! If you don't meet the end goal, that's perfectly fine. You tried, you wrote, you wrote some more. (Sorry if I sound like a broken record 'cause this is pretty much all I say for NaNo, "write, write more, write, write.") Also, reading is totally worth the time. Books are life!

Only two days left of NaNo, and I didn't really get close to 20k. I'm hoping to cram in lots of writing in the last days to hopefully make it to 5k, but I have intended to do cool stuff and have not done that. But at least I got some sort of writing this month, even though it was a painfully small amount.

Thank you so much for the encouragement @Spearmint!!!!


NaNo 2023 Reflection:
I didn't write as much as I hoped this month, but that's okay, because at least I wrote something. I didn't reach my goal, but I planned for my novel, and now I have some sort of idea on what pace to go at. Also, it's not like I am a professional writer, and this is actually my first NaNo, so instant success was probably not going to happen. I really loved thinking about my novel and also seeing how other people had progress throughout the month. The month did not involve as much writing as I hoped, but in the end, it's not the worst thing in the world. I also learned to be positive about my writing because of the people commenting in my thread. Thank you so much @Carlito, @Spearmint, and @spottedpebble for the encouraging comments! They really helped.

Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did. So throw off the bowlines, sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream.
