Congrats on winning, Flowerlady!

I'm holding steady, finishing the night at 23,225. That's just over the count I needed for today in order to finish on time, though I hope to do even more tomorrow. Back up to my 3K-ish results? Yeah, that'd be nice. In any case, I'm on track according to my newly calculated schedule (currently at 2070 words/day), so I feel good about that.

Broke 50K after being up all night.

Now I've got to catch up on all the missed sleep I've accumulated doing this thing.

Yay, emerald!

I have four chapters left to finish and I have an absolutely horrible case of writer's block. I blame my excitement for Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1.

I did some words today but not enough to post a count. (I had to run some errands). I'll post up a count tomorrow.

I wanted to stop about 1k sooner but my Muse kept shouting at me.
I think she'll shut up for the night now. I wrote up to a nice bit of angst and confrontation that needs to be well thought-out.

I'm giving up for today at 32,614 words total. I just can't write any more today and I'm at the end of a chapter.

Congrats to everyone who's gotten 50K!

I hit a climatic scene today, and I managed to reach 29,330. I think I'll be able to catch up tomorrow, unless I have a nervous breakdown before or after my interview.

I am up waaay to late considering I have to work tomorrow.

But,

I'm done, I'm done,

Happy Dance...

And the total is bagged and tagged at 115,600 words of gratuitous Star Wars-ness.

I feel rather satisfied...but my thumbs hurt...trade-offs.

33,485 words for now. I'm not sure I'll get any more done as I'm going out for a birthday dinner later and I need to get ready soonish.

I think I am through with 37,952 today.
Might add some, but todays chapter turned out to be short and I don't feel like starting on another.
I have another NaNo writers meeting again tomorrow, so maybe I can write more again then.

Congrats to all passing the 50 K
And all of you still writing. You can do it. Go for it
I have passed the 51 K for my Star Wars story, have still a lot of ideas and are now coming to the second arch of the three part story.

So what's the weirdest thing you have in your novel? Mine so far is a priest doing an exorcism in the baggage area of an airport terminal.

Did no one pick up on it being my birthday yesterday?

I'm back in Starbucks today, and I'm all alone, again. I don't mind though as I got a coffee for Â£1 and I get free refills. With my awesome music I should be able to write loads.

Didn't know it was your birthday. Happy belated birthday! I managed to write a bit more today but it's on paper so it will go in the word count tomorrow when I type it in.

Thanks!

I stopped earlier at 37,015 words, or there abouts. I got well over 3,500 words written today, but I didn't get to 40,000 like I was hoping to. Oh well, I'm still rather pleased with my progress.

Hope your birthday was awesome, moosemousse. No better way to enter a new year of life than with noveling, right? (says the one with the barely pre-NaNo birthday )

I went to a day of epic writing, and it was awesome! I was (as usual) way behind, but now I'm only a little bit behind. I wrote 9,938 words today, for a cumulative total of 32,540 words. And I won a NaNoWriMo coffee mug for having the best word war total! Though I came in second place overall, it was a ton of fun. I can't believe I was antisocial about these things for so long.

Now, to prepare for Harry Potter viewing!

Happy Belated Birthday Rachel!

Made it to 39,840 today. I want to take Tuesday off to go see the new HP film so I'm trying to do extra words each day.
