Finally back to novel writing

Well, I'm off of school and I'm home for the week, so I'm finally working on the novel again. It's pretty disappointing that I've hardly worked on it all semester, but I'm happy to be finally doing something. Tonight I managed to get past the tricky plot point I've been struggling with, too. I'm way past the deadline I gave myself, but I'm hoping to have a draft done by the first of the year.

I'm really happy when I'm writing, but I'm also great at procrastinating and coming up with reasons not to do it. I hear most writers struggle with that. I just wish I could be more dedicated when I'm at school. It would help if I never had any homework to do, of course.

In the meantime, I have been writing poetry, so it's not like I'm completely worthless, right?

I plan to write every day for the rest of week, and maybe I'll be able to get a lot done.

November is National Novel Writing Month. There are so many reasons to write!
