NaNoWriMo, Day Five

Last year, I was able to write in spurts— a few hundred words here and there throughout the day until I had my word count. However, this year I seem to need to write in a solid block, writing straight through until I find a thread of plot. Today I managed to write for about an hour straight, which yielded a sufficient word count and such amazingly moving sentences as this:
“Good morning, Renn,” Daria said in a voice so dramatic that Renn felt she would drown in emo syrup.
Hey, a word is a word, right?

Total word count: 8,431
Status: on schedule
