Welcome to week 3 of National Novel Writing Month (NaNoWriMo)!

The goal for today is 1,667 words for the day with a total of 25,005 words. For Reverse NaNo folks, the goal is 1,724 words for the day with a total of 37,923 words.

Congratulations on making it to the halfway point! Congratulations on every word that you have written, especially if it is less than your goal and especially if it is more than your goal. Every word counts!

Pause. Take a breath.

How is NaNo really going so far? Are you where you would like to be on Day 15?

• Yes, I am ahead of my goals: 
• Keep it up! Don't forget to take some breaks. You are making wonderful progress!
• Yes, I am halfway through my goals:
• Excellent! Great work making it to the halfway point. Take a break. Keep it up!
• No, I'm Behind: 
• That's ok! There are 15 days left to write more words. Can you write for an extra 10 minutes every day? Make a new small goal if you'd like to get back on your daily word count goals for the month. Take a break. Take a breath. You can do this! Keep writing!
• No, it's not going to happen this month: 
• That's perfectly acceptable and totally okay. Sometimes Life happens. Take care of yourself and do what you have to do this month. Your project will be ready when you are. Good luck!

What are your writing goals for the next week?
