Did not get to sleep much earlier last night, even though I started writing earlier. Very tired now, with only 4 - 5 hours of sleep. I am struggling to be alert or think clearly. Definitely had better have an early night for my own sake. Hope I can manage that. Lately keep falling asleep in early evening for an hour or two, which is not helping me get proper rest at an evening hour.
In good news, I actually for the first time wrote enough to pass a NaNoWriMo target for the day, 1924 words. I doubt I could yet do that consistently, but it feels good to have done at all. Mostly, yes, this has come from sitting relatively free of distraction and writing the story.
Normally what I accomplish with my few-hundred daily words is a couple of ideas, a handful of paragraphs. This was unusual in actually getting to see some of the story happening over what was written. What I normally get done is more like a handful of frames, pieces too small to be more than stills.
That was... I am almost certain that is the most I have ever written in a single day. If I reported any higher totals in the previous year or two, those were including transcription of words already written from longhand to type.
