NaNoWriMo 03:38
This November I'm gonna write a novel in 30 days and by December, I'll type "The End" on the last page I've got some music. I've got my shiny new laptop And now I'll use it as I sit down at the coffee shop But everybody thinks I'm crazy But I've only got 50,000 words to go Before the end of NaNoWriMo I thought that it'd be easy but its not Yeah I've only got 50,000 words to go Before the end of NaNoWriMo I've got everything I need except the plot I've got a trusty side-kick. I've got a strong protagonist. There's a central conflict but a weak antagonist I've got a cliched setting and at best my plot is trite but at least I'm getting some time to myself at night Refrain Who decided to have Thanksgiving this time of year? Don't they know I'm trying to launch my writing career. Refrain
2.
I work eight hours steaming milk and sweeping floors I come home and take a shower and steam the coffee from my pores I sit at my computer and I open Firefox I play a first person shooter and then I open Google Docs But there is nothing there I'll guess I'll get to work But I should be writing I should be working on my craft I should be writing I should be submitting my next draft But I'm sitting home watching Doctor Who I stare at Google Reader and I read a how-to blog You've got to dig much deeper to write convincing dialogue so I search for inspiration deep within the iTunes store but there's no application that will help me to ignore the fact that Doctor Who is on TV tonight Chorus Why do I do this to myself? Why can't I relax? I want to see my name up on that shelf on the spine of a paperback. Chorus
