It took me literally all day to write my daily target. All day. I finished the last word at 4:48pm - about three minutes after I was supposed to start cleaning up and closing shop for the day.
It was the single most sluggish day of writing I've ever experienced. I hated every minute of it. I'm praying that today goes better for me. We'll see, though.
Otherwise, things are going well. Well, well enough.
I've realised that I do not need to write 3 000 words a day every weekday to hit my target. In fact, if I stick to my regular schedule of 3 000 words a day every day except Friday, I should still reach the NaNoWriMo target of 50 000 words by the end of the month.
So, I think in the name of sanity, I'll be just doing my regular thing. I'll find out at the end of this week if it averages out. Right, I should get writing.

With the pace at which you write, you ought to get a free pass some days. This week has been really difficult for me to write. I hope I can catch up!

I hope you can as well. Perhaps it's just the week. I don't much feel like writing today, so it's probably going to be another slog.
Good luck to you!
