NaNoWriMo 2010 - Day 7

Day 7 - 23 days remaining

You never have to change anything
you got up in the middle of the night to write.

- Saul Bellow



Today brings us to the end of the first week, Nano Writer! Your word count should be better than 11,667... How did you do?

The weekend is often a good time to catch up. Don't let yourself fall too far behind the daily word count! Remember, this is not the time to throw anything out!

This is also the night when in the US, we set our clocks back an hour. What would you do (or plan to do) with an extra hour, Nano Writer? For me, I've finally arrived at the scene where the protagonist has come face to face with the story's antagonist, he just doesn't know it yet. I have no choice but to keep writing to see how it all comes out ;-)

Whatever your plans, remember to keep writing!

currently at 17362 and looking forward to a productive day ... hoping to wrap up Act 1 by tomorrow night (although that might be too optimistic)

what am i doing with an extra hour? writing of course!

from an online chat with Kallisti and the engineering team of g0ddesses.net:


D: i just wanted to double-check, i didn't get the notification about postponing the emergency emergency board meeting. did you send it out?

Kallisti: me?

D: yes. as far as i know you're the only acting interim interim CEO

Kallisti: oh I didn't realize it was up to me. should i do it now?

D doesn't like what Kallisti just said

D: no, don't bother. 24 hour notice is required, so it's too late at this point. looks like the emergency emergency board meeting is going to be tomorrow afternoon. and i'll be flying back from DC, so you'll have to do it without me.

Kali whispers: you really aren't making a very good first impression

A fantastic word count - hope your day goes/has gone better than Kallisti's ;-)

the funny thing is my day featured a very kallisti-like screwup :-) fortunately when i asked 'what can i do to make it up to you?' the answer was 'i sure would like some snickerdoodles'. as penances go, it was a remarkably pleasant one :-)
