Could you try skipping to a scene out of order? Something with a different mood or tempo than what you're doing now?
Or could you take a moment to write a scene that is so familiar to you that it's easy to burn through several thousand words?
For example: I was having a hard time too, barely dragging 1000 words out of me. So I wrote a party scene, cause I used to work in party planning. Then I wrote a birth scene, cause well, duh I'm a midwife. The next scene flowed pretty well cause I'd had two days of success under my belt and had gotten back into my groove.
Just a thought. Good luck, Bel!

This is soo funny!
If you are typing in word go to 'tools' then 'autosumarize' select in a new window and 100 words or less.
This is what it gave me
Really alot more happens BUT mark and rebecca are the MCs and mark's dad is mentioned alot, so its funny. I did like the symetry in the beginning and end of it.

I've passed 16.000. Off to write some more now, before M comes to pick me up. We're going out to eat Chinese before we go and see the new Harry Potter movie!

The new Harry Potter movie is out already? Damn, they really know how to milk those stories fast for all the money they can get!
Congrats on the 16,000.

It would be nice, but I don't see it happening. Have the kids' bowling Thanksgiving party this afternoon and have goodies to make before we go. Hopefully I can make some time to write tonight.

Ahh, I wish, but I can't. We're doing Scotch Doubles today, so not only do I have to help with the party and everything else (I'm a league officer), I also have to bowl with the kiddos.

Ha! By the end of each Saturday, this mother is extremely exhausted after trying to keep 4 kids on task to bowl 2 games and get the league business done at the same time.

Nano's not easy. I crashed and burned miserably last year. I don't think I even made it to 13,000.
