Oh my god kindred spirit. These are both, in fact, NaNo novels I'm referring to - my only two successful ones, which is to say the only two I've stayed motivated enough to finish.
I am sounding like I'm too attached, aren't I? *le sigh* Well, I kind of suspected I might be - this is why it helps to get an outside opinion, after all! I'm just too worried about going forward, in case I spectacularly mess something up and can't go back.
My writing style has changed a lot in the last few years, so at least I'm in a good position to pick out strange word choices. I definitely need to work on description and personality - weirdly, that seems to be one of those things that NaNo trains you out of.
