NaNo 2010 Day 19

Well, the week kind of went to hell after the last post. On Tuesday a pipe burst where I work, and several days of chaos followed. Come in, dont come in, come in. Plus, due to NaNo and writing in general I had errands backed up for quite some time. I rarely get time off in the middle of the week like this, and even more rarely in blocks, so... NaNo had to take a back seat. Somehow, over a very chaotic Tuesday, Wednesday , and Thursday I added 2,354 words, getting to a total of 52,383. I'm not even sure what got added which day - like I say, it was chaos. Today, back in the saddle again, the discipline of a working environmemnt, etc, and I got things moving. At the end of today we added 5,407 words for a total of 57,790.

Today, though, I had to do some clever things with POV. I had plotted everything out, but the outline didn't make me realize that most of the last four chapters will be from a POV other than the heroine. So I had to reorganize it, select who got to tell the end of the story, and then start writing it that way. I have three chapters yet to go, so this NaNo may include some revising, although I do have some inserts to be added.

Keep going everybody. Almost there.
