Moonlight Encounters

The dawn of day five is upon us NaNo-er's.... I've done well, but not as well as I could have done. I've missed a whole two days of writing, but my word count is still above the minimum daily word count, so I'm trying not to let it bug me too much. I don't like failure. And failure to me is not putting my best into something - especially my writing. So, in a sense I feel as if I've failed the last couple of days. 

Last night as soon as I hit the 3000 mark (and came to a place to stop), I quit writing and went to sleep. This morning I'm kicking myself in the rear for not going further, for not pushing myself to my limit. 

On the subject of writing - but not my accomplishment or failures. NaNo has taught me a valuable lesson. I write a lot better, and faster, with a plot to work with. And I have less encounters with writers block. I think my muse is a plotter. That's okay with me. I'll follow her where ever she leads as long as she's leading with words for me to write. :-D
