Victory Dance

Woohoo! I managed to rise to the challenge of writing 50k words worth of a novel in less than a single month! Go me. It doesn't matter that I'm probably less than halfway through all the plot that my story will eventually have, because there's nothing in the rulebook of Nano that says my story has to be finished in 50k. In fact, 50,000 words was almost the exact amount to get me through the portion of my novel that I had planned out before November, which I find somewhat oddly coincedental.

You may be wondering what I get for all my hard work. Well check it out.



Yes, it's entirely true that I could have made something like that in Photoshop for a whole lot less work than Nano took, but that's not the point!

I'm currently sitting at 50,025 words with essentially two days to go. However, I think that I will be enjoying the 360 and doing some math homework during those two days, so my word count will not substantially increase. Once it's officially over I'll post my writing graph (and Rachel's with her permission) so you can see exactly how much work it daily took to reach the lofty goal of 50,000 words.

So who's going to join us next year? It really wasn't so bad.
