Don't worry about the guts of the research, get the thing down on "paper" and worry about editing, researching and whatever later when you aren't under a time crunch. Write whenever you have a few minutes. On your lunch hour, in the bathroom (ok maybe not), but you get the gist of what I'm saying. You'll be there in no time and yes, you can make up the 13k words you got behind on. Run with it babe!<br /><br />~ SandySandy Sullivanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17943828577241346808noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2155194054556095937.post-47192343686597384792010-11-08T10:47:22.584-08:002010-11-08T10:47:22.584-08:00Lisa, you said perfectly what many other Nano part...Lisa, you said perfectly what many other Nano participants are saying this year - it's a global epidemic! But just like you -- I am persevering. I am at slightly under 7k words -- so I am behind too. Let's snap on our seatbelts and get ready to put rocket fuel in our gastanks!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
