NaNoWriMo Day 19

NaNoWriMo Day 19

Things that went through my head between 5am and 6am this morning:

  • 5am is too early. I’ll just stay in bed a bit longer
  • Alright fine. Busy day. If I don’t get up now, I’ll be running late all day.
  • This is a terrible idea. It’s too complicated for kids.
  • Kids are not idiots. Just start writing.
  • I don’t know what to write. What do I know about moons and Jupiter?
  • How many moons does Jupiter have?
  • Hmmm… I could read about moons all day.
  • Must write something. Come on.
  • Oh, I think I started this one ages ago. In a notebook. On a plane.
  • Yeah, I don’t know where that notebook is. Just sit.
  • And write.
  • This is a terrible idea. It’s definitely too complicated.
  • It’s clever, but too complicated.
  • Just write it. You can always simplify.
  • Also, kids are not idiots. Don’t dumb it down.
  • You can always explain stuff.
  • Wow! Saturn has more moons that Jupiter now. That could work…
  • <writes some stuff>
  • <and some more stuff>
  • Well maybe this idea could work.
  • But…
  • <writes some more stuff before but kicks in>
  • Oh, it’s almost 6am.
  • Better go for a run. See how it pans out tomorrow.
