NaNoWriMo update… Day 2

Hi everyone!  Just wanted to give you an update.

Day 1 was a wash for me.  I spent it reviewing what I already had written.

Day 2 was amazing though.  Through a really tough mental period I was able to pull some ideas while meditating on some music.

FYI I am working on two novels at once.  Well they may end up being novellas… but whatever.  I have to multitask.  If I get blocked with one I can work on the other while I find my way out of any traps I fell into.

 

My tip:

Don’t be afraid to back up.  Think of this like driving… sometimes you have to go a little in reverse to get to where you can move straight ahead.

 

Happy Writing!!!

30 Days Hath November ~ Prompt 2

Write a poem, essay, or short story starting with this line:

The kitchen smelled of fried fish, lavender, and heartache.

🙂 Happy Writing!
