Muahahaha.

1706. Not too shabby. But to be completely honest, I can't shut off my typo editor. Spelling errors just simply cannot go unfixed. I don't care what people say about it slowing me down, it actually makes me slower if I don't fix them. It's just the way I am and if it takes me a little longer to write, then oh well.

I'd say it's very good for an hours work. I'm just waiting for the room to clear out so I can get into it again. My dog attacking me isn't good for my cretive flow. -.-

1,700 or there abouts, it's on my laptop so I don't get distracted by the internet while I'm writing. I should go down and do some more now...

Well, I had some 'technical difficulties.' First, I couldn't stay up til 12. I set my alarm for 5 am and then turn my computer on. Then I found out my keyboard didn't feel like working, so I had to find a new one.

20 mins gone.

Then I finally started writing with a soda in my hand. Well, I finished my prolouge, and it's up. Midnight Darkness. Check it out.

Word count: 1533

Mines like the worst! I know.. I feel that I won't have enough words!

I had forty-five minutes to write, and I pumped that out. I'm actually quite proud of myself, but I'm gonna try to get more today.

I forget who said this but, I totally agree. I can't write with the red underline everywhere. I just cant!

But, here's a tip, turn your spell check off until you wrote for the DAY and then go back and edit it...

Keep Posting Smile

Oh can you please give me the links to your Nano sites...I would love all the support and will return the favor!

Oh, Isn't the web site slow?!
