600 words in an hour then 250 in 10 minutes…

Fair warning… 90% of my posts for the next 29 days will be #NaNoWriMo-related.

This morning, I forced myself to get up at a “decent” hour, fixed coffee and I even got out of my pajamas. Then I sat down to write.

Yes…I have to make myself get out of my comfy PJs. Don’t you?

I had almost an hour to write before someone else wandered in and interrupted me but I only managed 500 words. After that, I changed my playlist because I’d bored of listening to the same 3 songs over and over again for an hour and in the next 15 minutes I wrote 250 words.

Irony… I think not.

I thought at first that it was just the music but on further reflection, I think there were several contributing factors. The music was one but I think my level of being awake was maybe even a little more of a factor.

Anyway, cut to the chase and I finally reached my personal goal of 2500 words for today.

Think I’ll try starting with the same playlist tomorrow morning and see if it makes a difference. I’ll let you know if it does.
