I haven't edited anything in my novel since signing up for NaNoEdMo! Oh well. I don't really feel like writing at all, with all this war stuff going on. My novel seems really stupid & shallow in light of that. I think we definitely need stories to get us through tough times, and just to be human, but my whiny, angsty protagonist seems way too self-indulgent at the moment. That helps me cement the decision to focus more on my humor novel-in-progress for a while, because it's at least more escapist.
