389. Beginning a murder novel is hard... But once I get into it I can beat you easy, Sumi. I am, after all, the inventor of the Hyper-Write technique.

1178.

So about 600 to go before I hit today's quota. I'm aiming for a couple of thousand today, though, just to feel like I've gotten off to a decent start. I'll probably end up writing a lot earlier in the month, since things will pick up for me later on.

Great job to everyone so far!

EDIT: 1556, but now I have to leave for Tae Kwon Do. Dagnabbit! :(

2149. Now I have to go and write more. I need about another 1300 words before today's writing is over. I'm editing too, which means I'm re-working sentences which slows me down, but it'll be better when I get into the swing of it.
*Don't expect to see me around much in the next couple of weeks. School has started again, and it'll be a couple of weeks before I've settled in. If you've asked me for a critique, you will get it, but not for a little while. Sorry*

2416. My first class was canceled today, so I took the extra time to write.

I'll probably write more later, but for now I have to concentrate on things like math homework and spring schedules and all that.

Oh, and catching up on sleep might be nice, too...

3411 - even though I have really challenging exams for the next few days *is proud* I'm hoping to hit 5k before sleep tonight, but may not get chance as my history professor is insane so I have to read up on everything he HASNT told us in order to pass the damned exam tomorrow *rolls her eyes*

As for the quality...it's all a load of **** of course, but I'm enjoying being able to write and my inner editor is being surprisingly good so far. I mean, he rails about my dialogue, and my characters, and...pretty much everything really, but he is content if I allow him to make snarky comments in my NaNo journal from time to time XD
Got a poem or short story you want me to critique?

Bubble -- I can sympathize. My IE is banging his head on the inside of my skull at the dialogue. Who know that eliminating contractions made dialogue so....cheesy? :P
