Day 45: Is it something about this month?

I think there's something about February that's making me not want to write, or making writing seem like a daunting task. Possibly because the month is a few days shorter, I'm not sure or maybe I'm just plain lazy and am making up excuses... probably the latter, come to think of it.

I've written 780 words today, and am determined to try and write chapter 8 today. Each chapter is between 3 and 4,500 words - so that'll give my monthly word count a boost. I really want to reach my goal for WriYe, and slacking isn't helping whatsoever, but suddenly, other things just seem so much more interesting. I've been playing the sims everyday, which means that I'm more focused on that than doing anything else. I have some sims chapters to write up, so I could do those I suppose, but I'm not counting them towards my word goal as I don't honestly write that much on my chapters, so it wouldn't really add a lot.

I'm going to print out my novel (so far) later, and read it and edit it. I received a critique back from someone on boolprop, and I have a few things I need to work on, but I might not work on them until I do a full edit or a re-write (if I ever do a re-write xD) so yeah, we'll see.

I've got an idea for NaNo this year, which is good :) I want to start writing my Vampire novel BUT I want to finish my current novel first, so that I'm not writing more than one thing at once - my brain can't cope with that much writing :P

I need to go to the shop, then come home and write like the wind xDD
