Third gradin' it
11 November 2005
This just makes me so proud:
This is the official NaNoWriMo word count as of 8:50 pm this evening. And do you see who's Number 2? The twin cities baby! w00!
Not only are we #2 but we've consistently been #2 since the beginning. The number 1 spot has been LA, London, and a few other spots that all manage to be in the top 3 for about a day before falling down on the list. But Minneapolis? Consistent. Must be because it's getting so god damned cold up here that we have nothing better to do than continue writing.
UPDATE: 4,335 words tonight. One word: horns.

LOL it's the damn weekend and in LA you best believe they are partying for content :)
11,650 here as of tonight - to be on my schedule, I should be at 14,000 by now, so there'll be some serious catching up being done this weekend. If I can get to 17,000 by the end of tomorrow night, I'll be happy, and that'll get me 1,000 ahead of schedule too (I AM going to reach 50,000, there's no way I'm bailing out).
It's been an uphill struggle so far, as there's been a lot to set up, and a lot of plot to get across (my novel is a kid's fantasy novel, and rather more complex than I realised), but most of the major players in the novel are in place now, so I can finally start to let the characters take over and write themselves a little.
I am SO envious of how you're finding this so easy!
Pssst. Go check again. We're #1 now.
Again, \m/
