This is going to be a quick post because I need to get back to writing.

NaNoWriMo 2022 is shaping up to be a wild one. I’m writing consistently! That’s always good and a particularly welcome development this year. I’ve been struggling with consistency for months now.

Not everything is going according to plan. I haven’t reached my target daily word count once during the first week. I’ve gotten close, but falling short every day has added up. I have a lot of catching up to do during the rest of the month.

Can I do it? Maybe.

I’ve caught up from way behind before. No two years are the same though. This year is a lot different from the past few too. I have a house to look after now and I’m not just living with my boyfriend and cats. People are a big distraction for me and now I have people around. It’s not ideal. I need to figure out how to adapt to win this month on the fly.

How did your first week go? I know some people are past the halfway mark already. Whether you’re far ahead or lagging behind like me, I hope the second week of NaNo goes well for you!
