It's November 2nd and I'm 4,586 words into my 50,000 word novel. I'm following Stephen King's suggestion to just put the characters out there and see what they do. They are certainly surprising me at every turn. Spending too much time in the Nano forums and am now obsessively worried that my computer isn't counting my words accurately and I'll have a nasty surprise when the Nano-bots count my novel at the end of the month. It's always something, isn't it?

That spontaneity leads to unexpected authenticity.
You go, girl!
It absolutely IS leading to authenticity! It's forcing me out of my standard, censored attitude towards writing and it's wonderful!
