Started to write at 8 AM
It is not quite 9 and I have over 1000 words written.
Just think of a scene and write.
I am learning so much about writing a novel. Just by doing this!
I am also realizing that I can write 500 words in a half hour. 2000 words in 2 hours. First Draft Ville, of course, but still—What does this tell me about my writing life going forward? That I can write and do other things too. Oh my.
Later; It’s 10 AM and I have written 2156 words. In one way I could just keep going on, but you know I AM DONE FOR THE DAY.
New Total: 19,967 Oh, come on—go back and write 33 more words and make it 20,000!
I did it! Quoted a whole stanza of Shakespeare instead of just the one line I had used and got up to 20,030!

Anne,
I am so glad to hear you are having a good nano experience. After you are done I suggest sharing your thoughts with the Taos writers. I know there are some there who have thought about doing this and would love to hear what you have to say.
Kate
