I am once again behind in my NaNoWriMo novel this month. I'm not sure what is wrong with me. Maybe my story sucks (okay, there's no maybe about that). Maybe it's because I've been too social for my own good (didn't get to bed until three last night). Maybe it's because I keep running out to check the mail every twenty minutes (still no call letter yet!).

Whatever the reason, I think I need a jump-start. This thing is failing. I've been consistently two or three thousand words behind since around the sixth, unless you count that whopping seven-thousand word leap my wordcount took on the eleventh. That was the day I had no classes. I also didn't happen to get anything done in the way of school work that day.

So today my only class has been cancelled. It seems I'm in a bit of a dilemma. Write like mad to try and make it to 32K today and potentially salvage this month's novel, or...finish the school work necessary to graduate?
