50,000 words completed
Yeah, so I did NaNoWriMo again this year. For the uninitiated, that is National Novel Writing Month, the month of November, as run by www.nanowrimo.org. The idea is to write 50,000 words of a novel in one month, and I did it.
Unlike last year, said novel is not yet done. Also unlike last year, (I think,) I have a bit more drive to get this one actually worked into something passable.
Odd part is, the story is not done yet - and part of me is tempted to wait until the second draft to finish it. As it is, I will have to keep slogging along - with only my internal motivation as time pressure - in order to feel like it is done.
But I got to 50,000. :)
