So... I'm apparently not so good at the 'pep' part of pep talks, at least to myself.

Fortunately, you beautiful people are much better at it, and I'm all re-energized and raring to go. At work now (LAST DAMN DAY), so somewhat limited in what I can do about all my newfound energy, but ya know...

I did get my Nano count up over 10k! By like 3 words and I'm still way behind, but hey - over 10k!

Tonight, I'm going to dye my hair and probably watch TV and generally take it easy. Because yeah, my to-do list isn't doing itself, but it will. I have a Plan.

I have something I think you'll get a lot out of--Elizabeth Bear on why it's important to respect your writing process. (http://matociquala.livejournal.com/1502962.html) Again, more carrot, less stick. :)

Sandy sent this to me and I managed to get 1210 words in 30 minutes this morning. No time to stop and think or edit or anything. :) It did help to think of what scene to write before hitting the go button!

"Gentle Mode: A certain amount of time after you stop writing, a box will pop up, gently reminding you to continue writing.
Normal Mode: If you persistently avoid writing, you will be played a most unpleasant sound. The sound will stop if and only if you continue to write.
Kamikaze Mode: Keep Writing or Your Work Will Unwrite Itself "
