Wow!

So I can't believe this is happening to me.

I've never, in my entire life, written this much in four days.

My first day, 14k.

Second day, 8k.

Third day, 8k.

Today? 11k.

11.

K.

That's my second highest amount written in a day this year, third highest ever, and on a day with school, chemistry homework and 15 questions of English.

I'm just about to hyperventilate.

If you know what that means, it means that (with the extra 300 and 500 words here and there) I'm at a grand total of 42k.

Yeah.

42,000. Forty two thousand (three hundred and six, for technicalities.)

My wrists ache, my fingers are crying and my arms (where my friends decided to punch me today) are begging for forgiveness.

I'm ready for sleep. Sleep. Sleep. Sleep.

I wish I could go nuts and hit up another 8k tonight but I really need to get a little time to myself.

Onto the goal and beyond tomorrow night!

See you all on the other side,

Happy noveling,

Day One, Off to a Rockin Head Start!

Wow!

I can't believe we're only into a day of this! It feels like it's been NaNoWriMo forever (I'm sure it helps that today had 25 hours...).

I also can't believe what I managed to do today. Don't ask me how, don't ask me why, (but I'm sure Write or Die's Desktop Edition and the fact that I paid $10 on it and want to get my money out of it has something to do with it) but I somehow did what I believed was the impossible.

I wrote 14k today.

In one day.

In seven hours.

I wrote 14k.

That means, if I stick with the word count goal that I have planned and stay at this pace (yeah right), my handy dandy NaNoWriMo report card says I'll be done on the 7th. THE SEVENTH.

Ah!

I just thought I'd share my excitement and the fact that I was able to do this because I did a mad amount of physics homework yesterday (85 questions to be exact).

Anyways, that's all for now and I'm off to do another word war!

Happy novelling!

Yours in literary abandon,

Maggie F.
