Happy Monday, SEers! It’s day two of the November write-a-thon known as NaNoWriMo.
If you’re participating, no doubt you geared up for yesterday and made a huge splash with your word count. Go you!
At the same time, pace yourself. The danger with any race, especially a long-distance event, is burning out too soon. As someone who has done NaNo several times, I put the bulk of my energy up front. I’m one of those writers who burst from the gate with a bullet of speed. My first day word count in 2019 was 9,037. Pretty impressive, huh? (I’m writing this post ahead of time, prior to November 1, 2020 when, hopefully, I knock it out of the ballpark again).
But like the hare and the tortoise, slow and steady wins the race. It doesn’t matter how splashy your entrance, only that you cross the finish line.
