NaNoWriMo

Anyone here signed up to do it? Anyone doing it "off the grid"?

Let us know, Curious minds and all that.

Either way, good luck,

Wrote 3200 words today. Made up some lost ground from yesterday so my moth-to-date total is 6500. Only off my goal of 2k per day by 1500.

"Using NaNoWriMo as a catalyst, set a goal of writing 60k this month, 2k per day. As of yesterday, hit 6500. Need 3500 today to catch up. Flexing my fingers now."

I have my first meeting today with local writers. Always looking for some motivation.  Anyway, I'd better get writing.

FYI: Here's a blog post with another writer's thoughts on NaNo.

Okay writers, you're down to the final hours. Where did you end up?

[David DeLee]

Well, for me a mixed bag. I wrote approximately 26,000 new words of fiction, so missed my total out put by half, at least. But, I did complete the first draft on a 28,000 novella and half started a couple or three short stories.

Not great, but not bad.

How about everybody else?

Congratulations David! Not sure what your average wordage is, but a 26K-month sounds like a winner to me. I was not in NaNo this time and wrote about 5K this month. For me, that's definitely a good month! Congrats again.
