There is just NO WAY I'm going to be able to do this this year. I've been working 9 days straight and will be working through to Friday, maybe Saturday. I don't think I'll have any time in November...
If you are up to no good, please do no good for me too, okay?   ;D

can't really afford to do this, going to be a very busy November

will probably try and fail horribly again, though

Nanowrimo hates me.

Some of my fanfic writing proves I can get about 50k words done in a week, week and a half, but it's hard to do it when I'm thinking about and have other things to be doing

Woke up this morning. Wrote 4000 words in three hours. Still have the rest of the day to go. Awesome.

Awesome Jeno 10 AM and I've already hit 1200!

Second day for me, it's 10 am, and I'm on 5k+ words. I'm pretty happy with that. I need to leave around one to study for school -_-, but I think I can manage a lot more. hurrah!

I kicked butt yesterday writing around work and today the ADD monster has hold of me.  I'm head of goal for day two, but not as far ahead as I'd like to be.  I want 5K by the end of today.  I'm about 1280 short.  grrr.

Got 3600 words my first day.  This story is by way of an experiment of me--for the first time I'm writing with no outline or clear idea of where the story is going.  I know who the characters are and have some set pieces in mind that I want to include, but have no clue about the main plot.

Jeez.  And I've only JUST broken 1500.  I'd better get my fingers moving.

Growl,
It is the third day grind. My MC is undergoing Basic Training, dredging up memory’s thirty years old...

lmao, don't. I spent all of October getting ready for NaNo - in planning and in writing stamina. This time last year I was lucky if I could get a thousand words a day. Don't get discouraged!

If you want to start beefing up you wordcount, I'd suggest WriteOrDie or a comm that hosts writing sprints. I know the NaNoWriMo community on LJ hosts sprints through out the day on AIM.  ;D
