NaNoWriMo 2004, part 2
« on: November 11, 2004, 01:41:55 AM »
Ok, that thread was getting stupidly long so I locked it to be considerate to Modem users.

I'm right now on 17, 500, and the next 800 words to meet today's goal is feeling annoying and elusive.

Isn't NaNoWriMo all about obnoxious length.
Makes me wonder if we could submit one of the long threads as an entry? Probaly not, but would be a avante gaurd thing to do.

So I'm at 14,748 right now. I still have some catching up to do. Hopefully tomorrow will be productive.

18, 186, and that's probably it, since if I write anything else, it'll be Paranoia adventures, not NaNoWriMo.

Yeah, I'm a little behind the daily goal, but I still wrote more than 3k today, so if I keep the rate up I'm set.

Ick, I'm falling behind again.  Dang it.   I was doing so well, too.

You missed me on the word counting for yesterday, SE. I had my post on the page before the one you collected from.

I don't think I'll get any writing done today. I currently have a floorful of desk parts. But it'll be really nice to work at when I'm done!

Day 11 stats up. You will notice that for the first time in a week I have a post count that says something other than "I suck"

Well, coming off of work, I'm at 17,520. I just might get caught up this weekend if I can stay inspired to write.

And I'm glad SE got something written. Congrats SE.
Having neither Fell or SE writing for the past couple of days was just depressing.

I assure it was more depressing for me. I spent a lot of time staring at the screen.

Anyway, hopefully today I'll do some REAL writing. Like, breaking a couple thousand.

I need to do a little catching up today as well. I fell behind last weekend & I'm still not quite caught up from it. If I lose resolve again this weekend it'll be bad.

Well, I'm back . . . sort of. 200+ words so far today. Unfortunately, Mathias has been sick and cranky, which makes me cranky, and so I haven't been getting any writing done. I'm dedicated to this story though, so I'm going to stick with it, even though my chance of winning this year is . . . gone with the wind.

. . . or is that the sick child?
