NaNoWriMo takes off

NaNoWriMo has started for me an hour ago.
Two hours ago, I didn’t have a clue what to do. I thought I knew the first scene, but after that, everything was blank.
Then, I sat down to sort my wordcount sheet and suddenly realized that I have to start earlier in the story, and suddenly, it all came together and I planned ten solid scenes ahead (which will be ~5 chapters), nailing down the key elements of exposition and having a forward momentum.
I wrote 1216 words in an hour and now I’m practically falling asleep on the keyboard. But it’s all right. I still have all the tomorrow for the first day.

To everybody else doing NaNo – good luck!
