I began with great gusto.  I continue to work on my November novel but other stories, characters from other projects interfer.  I am writing like a fiend, working on textures, the turn of a phrase, how to say "turn" in many different ways, I always see my characters turning away, toward, bending to. . action. 

I think to be writing though it is not focused on my NaNoWrMo project is still valuable, no?
