Day 24 - 6 days remaining

When the focus shifts from "Will it be good?"
to "Will it get done?" our subconscious is free to
do its work, and that work often bears rich fruit.

Today’s word count is 40,008 and time for the last of the 10K prizes if you’re on a mini-reward system! The finish line is close, Nano Writer… you can’t stop now! And as today is a holiday of thanksgiving in the US and many of us have no school or work for the day, why not take advantage of the time off (or a part of it) and just write!write!write!

A reminder too: tomorrow validation officially begins on the NaNoWriMo web site. Let’s us know too when you cross the finish line! Questions? Comments? Inspiring words to share with our Nano Writers that are working hard to catch up? It’s all good! So keep writing!

My main characters hate me right now. :P They keep getting injured. One more than the other, but that's because ze's the source of my MC's magic, so if ze gets taken out, it makes things easier for their attacker(s). Kinda hope my MC remembers a bit of advice she was given earlier...

I have never been comfortably ahead on nano at this point before, and this will be my fourth win - I have always, always been thousands of words behind, flailing incoherantly, chasing after words like a mad thing everysooften and procrastinating most of the time. XD (Not that I haven't procrastinated this time, too, but... I've been writing more, the past few years, when it isn't nano. So I'm in better writing shape, I guess. Yay!)

It's doable! No matter how far behind you are - and it's a huge rush, chasing that deadline, roaring over the wordcount just before it catches you. XD I actually rather miss it.

...Which I guess means that I need to push up my wordcount goal next year. XD

"It's doable!" is one of the best feelings. I ended up substituting the rush of "yessss finished the story in November" for the rush of "yesssss got enough words", because I've personally never been all that behind, but increasing the wordcount goal could work too :D
