NaNoWriMo 2009 Day 10

Day 10 - 20 days remaining

Don’t tell us that the old lady screamed. Bring her on stage and let her scream.

- Mark Twain



So, it's time for today's word count... is that someone screaming?

Today's word count to beat is 16,667! We're into the second week now. How is everyone's energy? If you find yourself flagging a bit, why not take a break and check out the NaNoWriMo Motivator brought to you by the Chaotic Shiny generator site!

Here's mine: "If you write 1874 more words today they'll put Firefly back on the air." That would be lovely indeed! Hmmm, I need a few more words to go to hit that - time to get back to work! Do you have anything special planned for meeting your writing goals? We're about a week out from the halfway point... so keep writing!

I'm still in the 7000s, but I feel this is okay because I'm just trying to do the best I can this time around. That and my reasons for slacking are legit because I have a lot of stuff going on that's higher priority (e.g., school).

That said, when I am writing I can turn out 1k in 30 minutes in Write or Die desktop, so I dunno, maybe over Thanksgiving weekend I can catch up liek crazy whoa and just sprint like a madwoman. I'm also happy with what I've got because it's not, in fact, terrible, and might actually be pretty good with some polishing.

It is most certainly okay! 7K! And it's great that you found time to do a little writing now - it will be a good starting place when you "Write or Die" over Thanksgiving Break. But if you can, even a dozen words here or there when you can will keep the story alive while you take care of the higher priority stuff.
