NaNoWriMo!

Meskhenet

I considered something that could be tied into Aetolia. Changed my mind.

Mariena

Well, I'm totally doing an Aetolia theme. Yay creditses.

Demarcus

Glad to see I got back just in the nick 'o time. Get my work-work done early, spend some waiting time writing. Win-win.

Demarcus

Just wanted to share this link with you all whom might be interested in adding me as a buddy:

And so it begins. The tale of Kenshiro. I mean Roland.

Demarcus

Went through and tallied all of the wordcounts thus far and calculated their percentage towards completion. Not that it is a competition, just a list to demonstrate who needs the most encouragement! Unless you are encouraged by competition. In which case, get writing.

Additionally, with 1 full week down, there are 23 days left to finish. 23.333% of the month is gone, so if you were on a steady pace, that is theoretically where you ought to be. Or you could relive the glory days of college and crank this sucker out on the night of the 29th.

1. AnnHark - 13578/50000 (27.2% completed)
2. CowboyKnight - 7668/50000 (15.3% completed)
3. saylowella - 7531/50000 (15.1% completed)
4. GinterGodfather - 3676/50000 (7.4% completed)
5. Son of Concrete - 2996/50000 (6.0% completed)
6. octagonCalibrator - 2351/50000 (4.7% completed)
7. TheSaucyWench - 2012/50000 (4.0% completed)
8. sauti - 900/50000 (1.8% completed)
9. MarieRemleux - 303/50000 (0.6% completed)
10. Cadwallon - 240/50000 (0.5% completed)
11. solaria - 0/50000
12. jjloraine - 0/50000

Sarita

I got sick and haven't written anything in a few days.

Ciarelle

I just went back and made sure I'd added all you people. I kind of got off to a crazy start because I knew work was going to come along and start kicking my butt.

Piper

I haven't written a single word and I feel bad about that. Worst timing to suddenly find myself obsessing over my old Georgette Heyer books. I'll try to start something this weekend, though.

Haven

As much as I want to do this, I'm putting my attention on finishing the 100 themes challenge first. I'm hoping to have at least 15 passages done before year's end. I think I can crank that out with my schedule.

Maybe next year. Good luck everyone!

Solaria

I started on paper (about 700 words), but haven't had the time to start again or the motivation. Maybe next year I'll actually do this.

Demarcus

Aw. I do wish it had worked out better for more of you. I can absolutely understand how schedules change and the time you thought you would have evaporates before your eyes.

Don't be disheartened or give up! There is a lot of time left in the month, and even if you haven't started now, it is feasible if you were dedicated to get it done.

Keep on keepin' on guys 'n gals!

Bakhtuh

12 hour work days, a throat infection, and creepy fever dreams every night have pretty much left me completely incapable of building up my epic fantasy idea. Maybe I'll take it up later. 

For now, I'm thinking of starting from scratch on another idea.  

Minarael

I'm planning on doing bursts of writing on the weekends. My word count will be updated Sunday night.

Meskhenet

I seem to be going in bursts. 500 here, 100, 1500. I am slowly starting to make progress.

Demarcus

I noticed I started off in little spurts. 700, 1000, 1200, now I'm up to 2000+ a night. Seems to get a little easier the further along you get. Maybe it's just me?

It's that Locke blood in you!

Teani

Wish I could take part in this, but there really is no time. If I wrote that much on my thesis each night, I'd be happy and less stressed out (I'm on a slightly tighter schedule for that one). Good luck to everyone though!

Denser

I am only at 26k so far... Dying...

Ciarelle

I just passed 50,000 words. I'm nowhere near done with the overall novel, and what I have at the moment needs a lot of work, but... 

but... 

... 50,000 words. 

I think I just won NaNoWriMo?!

Jasline

Yeah, that's how you win it. Congrats! I'm almost to 45,000 so excited that the end is in sight!

Haven

Go team go!

Demarcus

28,085 words down, 21,915 to go. 22 hours and 42 minutes. I got this.

Demarcus

14,901 to go. 18 hours and 32 minutes. Easy day.

Cole

Done. I had 17,000 words on Wednesday, finished just a moment ago with 50,042 words.

Aymah

I finished it too! 50,024 words.

... but I have no title for my novel xD

PS. Good beer is your best writing buddy. 

Demarcus

And I present to you all...

With 43 minutes left to go. Sheesh, what an overachiever am I.

Only 24,164 words written today. I mean, it's not even half the novel. In less than 24 hours. Just goes to show you that if I had put my mind to it, I could have been done on November 2nd.

Time to do a little spell checking and editing for grammar so Raz doesn't think his American sucks.
