Winner!

Hey. Didya notice? Yep, with one day left in NaNoWriMo, I actually did it. 50,000 words in 29 days. And heck, I didn't even write on the weekends. Nice.

Now I have two things left to do -- First I have to actually finish the story. I have just the epilogue to go, but I haven't decided what's going to happen in it. For those interested, you can read the last chapter and see where I'm left. Without a deadline looming over me, I hope I actually finish the story!

Next, if I get it done, I need to go back and fix the darn thing. There's all sorts of editorial problems. Heck, in the first draft, one of the people was given a vial, but by the time he needed to use it, I needed it to be a string. And no, I didn't go back and edit, that's the whole point of NaNoWriMo.

So hey, if you like writing and always wanted to write a book, why not join us crazy people come next November and write your own? I know you don't have time, neither did I...

3 Congrats! I'm looking forward to next Nov. I've been working on the daily exercises in the book A Writer's Book of Days lately. Hopefully I'll be all set by next year.

4 Thanks. Even if you're not set, try anyone! It really is fun. And, at least for me, the pressure really helps me get it done.
