NaNo Day 12: 23,867
Made some good progress. I might get some more today but maybe not.

That’s exactly 5,000 words for today. I’d hoped to get 8,000, but that would have been surprising. This 5k is very good. If I can keep it up for the next three days, I’ll be in an excellent position to finish NaNo before Thanksgiving. Good night, All. Off to R&R.

Keyed in 2k in a little over 2 hours. Not a bad start on a 4 day marathon weekend. I’ll pick this up in the morning. Oh, and my bad girl MC for the story learned a few things tonight that will increase the distance between my good guy MC … Continue reading →
NaNo Day 10: Back at the Keyboard
Finished the work obligations, except for writing feedback on my exams, so I’m back at pounding out a few NaNo words. My two MCs are still on speaking terms, but that isn’t going to last much longer.

Today’s grand total netted 5749 words. Around three hundred less than last year’s total for the same day and 3k less on the month. I didn’t have exams to grade last year, so this isn’t too bad, all things considered. I can’t see any way I’ll get any words between … Continue reading →
Day 6, Part I: 11382
Running along nicely today. I need to run an errand, and I want to get it out of the way. Hope it doesn’t break the spell…but I have to do a major POV change in my head, so maybe this will help. Just in case you’re wondering, here’s a snippet … Continue reading →
NaNo Day 5: 7751 (Day End)
I didn’t write much more–I wound up deciding to mark all the exams today, then I can focus on writing and buying fruit and bagels tomorrow. I still have two exams to finish. I did tap out 200 more words for the grand total above. If I weren’t a touch … Continue reading →
NaNo Day 5: 7551 (Part I)
That was 2485 words this morning. A good jumpstart. Now, I’m grading five more tests (at least) and watching some Big Ten football before returning to get more words. As Holly mentioned, we ran 10s this morning with very pleasing results for both of us. I always enjoy “working out” … Continue reading →
NaNo Day 4: 5066
A mere 731 words today, but they’re words I didn’t have yesterday, so I’m happy for them. This is not a good month for me. I anticipated it might be rough. I’m going to get what I can get.

I’m calling “Uncle!” on Day 3. Better today than yesterday, I clicked out 1473 new words today. Got the kids set up in the dorm, and they’ve discovered those squeaky clean, fun new roommates are not quite what they thought they’d be, but they have found a way to carve … Continue reading →
