Still On Par

So I am proof that NaNo does work. I did NOT want to write today. Been busy at work. Distracted by closing on a house. Got personal issues that I'm contending with. All sorts of reasons not to write . . . but write I did. Why?

This whole time I've been writing I've been ahead of par. I didn't want to fall behind.

I am still just above par at seventy-seven words over 25K. Tomorrow will be a true test. I don't think I'll have time to write much less the inclination.

I have come up with several knew themes for this novel. My last novel, Vapor Trail had several themes that dealt with family loyalty, friends vs family, secrets, and the nine circles of hell. This new novel, tentatively titled Sunset Perfect, will be dealing more with perspective and how two different perspectives can see two completely different events in amazingly different ways. This will be good to use by having the short story about my novel at the end of the book. It will literally be the same novel from a different perspective. But all throughout the story I'm going to play on this theme of differing perspectives, particularly in the MC's relationships and his working with issues in his own life. So all in all it was a good thing I wrote today.

And like I said, I wouldn't have written if not for NaNo and just having the little bit of mass hysteria to prompt me forward.
