Day 12

Word count so far: 0.
To make my goal by the 28th, I have to write 1720 words every day until then. This makes me happy. Cause I can have nights like tonight and still make it.

My toddler and her daddy are fighting over bedtime. It makes me cringe. I don't know why I have this psychological reaction when I am the by stander. It makes me physically shaky. It is not like I expect it to escalate to the horrible things that go through my head. But I am seriously thrown off my game tonight.

If my NaNo was for adults I could turn the bad things into the book and go with the flow. But the nervous on eggshell feelings in my house do not belong to faery tales.

I'm trying to figure out how to write through this. But at least I am ahead of my goal and have a reasonable word count per night even if I don't figure it out before I pass out from exhaustion.

Front Loading is the greatest advice thus far. Yet another reason, I am thankful or my mentor.
