If you’re working on NaNoWriMo your word count at the end of today should be:  8,335 words.

If you’re not there, don’t feel sad. I’m behind, too, but I’m still plucking at it.

Today’s prompt, which can easily be put into a NaNo is to write at least 1,667 words on a memory. Things remembered. It could be your personal stuff; it could be from a character’s viewpoint. You decide. Be creative. You can make it prose or poetry, or a little rhyme like the Guy Fox poem, if you like. Memories are motivation oftentimes in stories. So what memory motivates your life today, or your character’s life? Write. Write like mad and don’t stop until The end.

And now your moment of Writing Zen:

I try to create sympathy for my characters, then turn the monsters loose.
– Stephen King
