NaNoWriMo – Status Update – Day 8

Written by Walt in Writing

You are probably wondering, “Walt, it is Day 9 so why are we getting an update on day 8?” The answer to that question is simple, The National Novel Writing Month website was down last night and I couldn’t get a screen capture of my word count. I realize that is a lousy excuse for delaying an update but my writing excursion yesterday was a trying one.

I had a bit of a rough day and was considering not adding anything to my work in progress. I thought better of it and set a small goal of reaching thirteen-thousand words. It took a great deal of effort, but I managed. When I went to update my word count on the NaNoWriMo site, I found it down for maintenance. So, I skipped writing a quick update blurb until I could get a screen capture.

Walt

My name is Walt White and I've been riding motorcycles on and off since my early twenties. After more than a decade away from the sport, I came back - and I've been making up for lost time ever since. Based in Southeast Pennsylvania, I write and create videos about real motorcycle ownership: the bikes I ride, the gear I test, the roads I explore, and the community I've found along the way. I ride a 2022 Yamaha MT-09 SP and a 2023 Kawasaki Ninja 400, and I try to give you the honest take you'd get from a friend rather than a press release. I'm also a husband, dad to three girls, and a pitbull owner - which keeps life interesting off the bike too.
