    BAH!! I didn't write at all yesterday! What with the election happening here andwaiting for some douche bag to come interview about renting a room (bastard didn't even show up!)

    Plus I drank 3 glasses of champagne (thank GAWD Obama won!!!) and got really sick because I had only eaten one meal. Stupid me, enough excuses. Between class and after class I will be writing!!

    VIVA!

    Thank you, T. My family has started calling me the "hermit."

    BTW, right now I'm up to 16,036 words.

    Very nice. I'm still at 6230 because I'm taking a couple of days to develop some song ideas for the NaSoAlMo "competition" which I'm also doing. I have three now out of the fifteen or so I'll need to fill a cd's worth of time.
    But by tomorrow at this time I'll be over 10000. At @1000 words/hour, that's a reasonable estimate. Could be a lot more as I type way faster than that, but I'm enjoying taking the time to craft the passages.

    I'm up to 12,531 as of today, and I'm quite excited because I do believe I've just written my favorite scene in this book -- when my MC has his first encounter with a dragon. He's hated all the animals up until this point, you see. So it's exciting.

    I'm at 17,118 today. Tomorrow, I feel, is going to be one of those difficult days due to having a zillion things that just have to get done.

    Ah well. That's just part of the fun!

    Excellent job, everyone! Keep going!

    I'm at 9770. I don't think I'm doing that badly considering I slacked off the first two days and had to catch up Monday. I wrote 4088 on Monday alone because of my slacking off. I'll probably be writing somewhere around nearly 3000 words per day. I also have high school, dance and choir to deal with. This is my first NaNoWriMo, so I don't think I'm doing too badly....

    Ugh I only wrote 967 words today because my back is killing me but I'm still only 300 words behind the daily "quota." So I have plenty of time this weekend to get it done, especially as my boyfriend will be off with his friends.

    Yeah...I don't worry too much about daily quotas as long as I'm writing consistently. Everyone's doing well so far. I have five tunes now..one of which I wrote for my grand-daughter, and a short story unrelated to the novel that popped out by accident last night. *shakes head* I dunno what that's all about. This is Thursday, so I'll be in here writing tonight while Ugly Betty and Gray's Anatomy play on the living room tv *grimaces* those shows are not for me. Should be over 10,000 by midnight. Did clear up a couple nits I had with the last section and am now at 6900.

    Im still around the 8000 mark which isn't too bad considering I should be at about 9000 and something according to my nanowrimo graph. I'v got a busy day ahead of me so will use the weekend to catch up big time!

    Well done to those who have reached the 10,000 mark!

    See, I shoot for quotas, and mine is 2k words a day, minimum, and 2.5k if I have nothing else I need to do that day. I hope I can keep this pace up for the duration, but if not, at least I'm working to give myself some slipping room.

    Broke the 15k word mark today.

    12,768 at the end of today. I'm still on my near 3k a day thing. Of course it's only day 4 for me, so let's see how long it lasts

    I did 1500 words while waiting for my roast to cook and plan on @2500 more tonight after football. That will take me to the end of the first section and into some of the interstitial material.
    So far the thing is going exactly according to the outline, which concerns me in an obscure fashion as I've never had that happen before.

    Now that's industry. I'm at 8895 and have stopped there for now. Will get back at it later.
