NaNo has begun

So NaNo officially started at 12am (local time) on Thursday. Unfortunately I didn't get any writing done that day or the next day. Instead I came down with strep or something and was pretty sick after Halloween. I am finally starting to feel a little better, but my throat is still sore. But at least I'm not racked with shivers (I was freezing even with a sweatshirt on and my heating pad on high) or feeling like I could fall over at any minute.

So I decided to not use my original idea. I love the idea and hope to write it eventually but it is just too involved to use for NaNo. I wouldn't be able to give it justice. Instead I had this other idea rattling around in my head for months and it is a simple love story so it works great for this challenge. It is fun and easy to write and I have already gone over plot ideas in my head for months.

I wrote a little on Saturday (about 1900 words) and I just added to that today for a total of 3657. Not too bad for 2 days of writing. I'm only like 4700 words behind, lol. Oh well. I might be able to make that up today if I get the chance.
