Accountability, author's timecard, word count written, feeling lonely out there?
Kali:
Sadly, yes it does reach even here. *sigh*
Oh well.
I have realized today that if I can write 2k/day, every day for the rest of this month, I can finish a first draft of Book 2 in October, thus freeing me to write something else for NaNo. I have the perfect project for it, something I've been tossing around in my head but haven't yet found the proper angle for. It's something that could benefit strongly from the pressure of NaNo, I think. But I want to have Book 2 as close to roughed out as possible before I turn my attention to another project.
I work better with deadlines. I keep telling myself that...

Incredibly productive weekend. Some Nebraska SCWBI people got together at a friend's cabin. We laughed, gabbed, walked, ate, then ate some more, then more...but we all were under one roof and we wrote like crazy.
I completed my print corrections to e-copy, came home, printed the next one, reading through yet again to make some additional corrections. Then I'm printing off hard copies for beta's. Interested? ;-)
Before a conference Oct 15th I have to perfect that blasted synopsis and craft a pitch session. Yeah, not my favorite thing to do either. Although I am now sparking along with the new concept and my mind can't wait to be let loose on it!
Enjorous:
1,022 words today during lunch. Clearly I need to start stepping it up if I want to make good from NaNoWriMo.

the neurovore of Zur-En-Aargh:
4453 words of vol 2. On a weekday because I have Stuff Happening on Friday and am not happy about it at all.
