NaNoWriMo - day 4

Day 4 of NaNoWriMo and now up to 8,970 words which is the most I’ve written in a long, long time. I’m slightly ahead of target (need to average 1,667 words per day to finish on time) which is good although I suspect the first week is easiest thanks to inspiration and enthusiasm being at their peak. What amazes me is that I’m currently writing 2,000+ words per day without struggling too much yet the moment I sit down to write my 100 words, my brain shuts off. If this continues, I might have to resort to using 100-word extracts.
