Congrats, you guys!


I'm still pitifully behind, but I think I can at least get over 15k by the end of the day tomorrow. That's actually pretty good for me, though. So, yeah...

I wanted to end it with a good number. So my final word count is *drum roll* 101,101. Very Happy It's been a really great month. One of the best, probably. xD

50,035. Smile

And counting, actually -- I have 45 minutes to write some more, and the novel is nowhere near completion.

But I managed to finish on the scene I had looked forward to the most. Smile

We won. We won.

Go us. Smile

Pshhhh, you can do it Aed. At least you're not a senior. Senior year you'll have trouble, but you'll find a way, it's not that difficult. Btw, who actually does homework?? >.> <.<

*sigh*

In '06 I made the 50,000 on my first try at NaNo.

This year I wasn't able to do it... and I didn't want to ruin my story by writing for quantity instead of quality. So instead of going, I wrote my story a lot slower, instead making it better. I only hit about 25-30,000 this time, I think.

This is for NaNoWriMo XxxDo. You have to write 50,000 words in one month (November).

Well done with yours though!
