It's week 2 of Camp Nanowrimo, and I'm falling farther and farther behind. I finally cracked my first two scenes, and then I ran into another new scene I had planned and got stuck for three days - I'm now questioning whether it's necessary at all.
So at 9,999 words by the end of the week I ended up being 12,583 words behind my Camp Nano target of 50,000 words. How's your Camp going? 😅
But next week is a new week, so fingers crossed the next writing vlog is a bit more successful!

TIME STAMPS:
00:00 - July 8th - A recap of what's not working in my revision
02:24 - July 9th - One week into the new job, and I feel like I have a job! Also chatting to an editor about my book
03:49 - Despair about my book 😥
05:16 - How will changing my goals affect my Camp Nanowrimo word count target?
06:09 - July 10th - Thinking rather than writing, and my laptop's still broken
07:38 - Stress about meeting with the boss
09:08 - July 11th - My laptop's magically better! Knocking out the prologue flashback and my new chapter 1
14:24 - July 13th - I've fallen almost 10,000 words behind 😅 Plus, getting stuck on the other new scene I wanted to add, and the ghost of Shawn Coyne in my head
18:35 - Stressing about doing a pitch to the new company
19:57 - July 14th - Figuring out why I want the new scene, struggling with it anyway, and then realising that I probably don't really need it
