    <content type="html">I'm almost a full day ahead on my word count already with 3101 words right now.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This year I actually have a planned story structure, a beginning scene, an ending scene, and signposts at specific points in time to stop and write. We'll see if this makes things easier or not when I'm further along.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Another new thing for this year is that I'm not writing one big plain text file with nothing but multiple returns or scene dividers to break things up. This year I have the trial for the Windows version of &lt;a href="http://www.literatureandlatte.com/scrivener.php"&gt;Scrivener&lt;/a&gt; running. (Thank you &lt;span style='white-space: nowrap;'&gt;&lt;a href='https://clare-dragonfly.dreamwidth.org/profile'&gt;&lt;img src='https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png' alt='[personal profile] ' width='17' height='17' style='vertical-align: text-bottom; border: 0; padding-right: 1px;' /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href='https://clare-dragonfly.dreamwidth.org/'&gt;&lt;b&gt;clare_dragonfly&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&amp;nbsp;for letting me know there was a Windows beta!)&amp;nbsp;The plan is to win NaNo and use the 50% off coupon I will earn to &lt;em&gt;actually buy&lt;/em&gt; this software.&amp;nbsp;Last month I spent some time importing my old NaNo stories into Scrivener and even just using it for editing like that made me &lt;em&gt;want it&lt;/em&gt;. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="cut-wrapper"&gt;&lt;span style="display: none;" id="span-cuttag___1" class="cuttag"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;b class="cut-open"&gt;(&amp;nbsp;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b class="cut-text"&gt;&lt;a href="https://tephra.dreamwidth.org/239641.html#cutid1"&gt;A lot of babbling and some screen caps under the cut.&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b class="cut-close"&gt;&amp;nbsp;)&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div style="display: none;" id="div-cuttag___1" aria-live="assertive"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Goodness I got wordy. Pity it wasn't novel content. :)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src="https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=tephra&amp;ditemid=239641" width="30" height="12" alt="comment count unavailable" style="vertical-align: middle;"/&gt; comments</content>
