I saw following post in the forums this morning:

Anyone else out there feeling a little lost on the NaNoWriMo Highway? By the end of the day I should only be 1k behind. But now, I feel like my plot is way off track. I've written the scenes in the story I had in my head as the month began. Those ideas kept me steaming full speed ahead and got me just past the halfway point last night. This morning, I woke up fresh out of ideas. Acute NaNo-Panic has set in. I feel like I'm adrift in open waters.

There is a bright side to this. Anything can happen now. I won't be hindered by my preconceived ideas of where the story should go. At least that's what I'm telling myself to boost morale. I remember having this dreaded feeling of where do I take my story now last year as well. And like last year, I will come up with something.

I'm making this a short post since the guilt is starting to set in that I'm writing something that is not part of my novel. Would anybody mind if I counted this blog post in with my word count? I won't tell if you won't.
