The NaNo Adventure

[kilroy]

I'd forgotten how much of a marathon writing 50,000 words is. It's nothing to do with inspiration and everything to do with just forcing yourself to keep writing no matter what. It's discipline and will, not skill; the authorial equivalent of aerobic training. And I've gotten flabby and slow as a writer.

Which is an excellent reason to do it, of course; but it will in fact be a pain in the ass.
