new laptop=new inspiration?

I think having a new laptop will help my writing. It's something new and exciting. The keypad is so nice and smooth and the screen is bigger.

So it's January. I completed half of my December goals. I edited a lot of stuff, but I could have done better. I was also supposed to finish my Nano novel. I have roughly 5,000 words to go but I'm falling out-of-obsession with the story and becoming enthralled by a new novel that 9,000 words strong. So here's my dilemna: finish the old novel or continue with the new?

I could work on both, and that sounds like a fair compromise, but I'm so excited by my new novel. So maybe I'll promise myself this: I can write my new novel so long as I write 500 words a night on the other.

I love arguing with myself.

That's what makes me a writer. ;-)
