NaNoWriMo Anyone?

[DramasticStar]

I'm guilty of many problems that i would imagine NaNoWriMo tries to fix. I haven't gotten past a single paragraph (literally) in any story I've felt strongly about writing, simply because my editing tendencies are so overbearing. I would like to say that I am a fantastic editor and have quite the astute eye, but when it comes down to actually writing, myself, it can be such a burden, because I can immediately see issues as they crop up and every 3 steps forward are proceeded by 2.9 steps back.

They tell people to turn off their spelling and grammar corrector thing when writing. It also helps if you just write thinking ahead and not of words already written. If your goal is to only write 50k and no more...consider writing your 1667 words for the day and then spend the rest of your time for that day editing. jsut make sure by the time your done with your editing...you didn't remove one too many words to drop your word count.

It would be a shame to think you had 50k and only have 49,800 or something like that.
