Camp NaNoWriMo August 2011 - Day 25

Day 25 - 6 days remaining

Put weather in.

Break out the last of those 10K incentive treats, Nano Writers because today's word count is 40,322!

And if you find that you're running low on plot or if you just want to shake things up a bit, try adding a dash of bad weather or some other kind of disaster, either natural or man-made, to your story and see what happens! At this stage of your story, does your main character give up in despair or roll-up-her-sleeves and take on the elements?

Validation begins today, August 25 - your local time! See more details here. Congratulations to all the early front runners that have crossed the finish line. Be sure to leave a note on one of the posts by August 31 to get a special Nano Writer "postcard"!

Questions? Comments? Local weather reports? It's all fair weather here in Camp NaNoWriMo, so keep writing!

... Yeah, the delete key... Very tempting sometimes. But ... as you said, every word counts ... *keeps on typing*
Thanks! *hugs*

It's official now. I just validated my count. Came in at 57,416 words.... and while not done my hands called for a day off to celebrate our victory over the "OMG We forgot to backup!" monster. :D

And thank you for the postcard!

That I did. I learned from the massive failure which made the Camp's Twitter feed!
