This is how I’m doing NaNo

I call it the “be kind to myself”approach. It’s a little bit like this  or this when things don’t go my way.

Here are my rules:

1. Try to write every day.
2. Try to write more than I think I can.
3. Try not to start a new book when things get hard.
4. Try to stay focused rather than rummaging through the cupboards or cleaning out my closets.
5. Being okay with messes both in my book and in my life.

So far so good!
