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. :)

Congrats! I've never successfully NaNoed before, and this year I didn't even bother trying. November is always such a hectic month! Maybe if I weren't in academia...

Yay! You made it! Some day I'll try it, when I'm no longer a student. I'd be happy to nudge you to keep slogging. :) I'm glad you didn't rush to finish the story just to get it all done in time.
