NaNoWriMo Week One

Hey guys, well today at midnight is the end of week one for the NaNoWriMo. Since this post is mainly about an update and some quotes, I figured we should get right down to it right? So, how are things going for you all? Are you reaching today's goal or just writing for fun without a focus on the word count like I am? :) On my end, I'm meeting the goal, but at the same time, I'm taking my time because real life and laziness. So far, I'm about to reach 11,000 with my bucket list, but I have a fan-fic project taking over the bucket's manuscript and you don't have much control over it whenever the story pops right into your head. But, other than that silliness, things are decent.

Now onto the main focus of week one, writing quotes. We all get into those horrible ruts that deepens our depression and lowers our confidence levels by let's say 50% of the time. When we don't have that special motivation, sometime we look to other things that would boost ourselves to our fullest to keep on going with our writing. So, today to motivate you lovely writers, I'm going to present ten writing related quotes I found on good reads and hopefully you'll enjoy them to the fullest. :) Happy Howling fellow writers!
