This unofficial NaNoWriMo has been an interesting experience. Apart from this, I don’t normally track my word count from day to day.
One thing I’ve noticed by doing that is that changes in POV slow me down. WAR OF MAGIC, like all of the DUAL MAGICS series, has several POV characters (five so far). POV only changes at chapter breaks, generally. And every time the POV changes, it’s like I have to build up momentum all over again. Or get into the new POV character’s head.
I’m not sure there’s much I can do about that for this story. Most, if not all, of those POV changes are necessary. But it is an interesting thing to note for the future.
