Day three Nano update. Costa have launched their festive menu so that's all the excuse I need for a write in 😊

Started off a little rough today but I broke it up a bit with a 400 odd word drabble and then switched back to my main project and completed the chapter, ending todays efforts at 2,241 words.  Total so far: 4813.  I would have liked to hit 5k today but I am happy with that given how much of a struggle I had to get started.  

So... I’ve just been asked if I am writing book two. And I’m like, er, no. Sorry.  I know everyone wants book two and I promise there is one in the works, sort of, but to cut a very long story short I’ve not had the best year so far in terms of my mental health.  Writing used to be my solace but this time I have taken such a hit that my muse has decided to not play ball at all. So while I know people are wanting book two and I really did hope to spend NaNo bringing it to fruition, its sadly not going to happen. Instead I have decided to be a bit of a NaNo Rebel (and I have claimed the badge accordingly) and I will write anything and everything BUT my novel.  So far although my muse is still resisting, I have 1291 words of fanfiction, a good 771 of which are for a story that had previously been gathering dust in the corner of my mind.  I am determined to get a good chunk of fanfiction written so that I accomplish SOMETHING even if its not my novel and whether I hit 50k or not.

So near and yet so far!!
