nano_writersIn the tale, in the telling, we are all one blood. Take the tale in your teeth,
then, and bite till the blood runs, hoping it's not poison; and we will all come
to the end together, and even to the beginning: living, as we do, in the middle.
— Ursula K. Le Guin
We are all one blood, we writers, telling our stories and writing our tales and as such, Nano Writers, let us march resolutely to Finish Line together! You can do it!
Reminder: validation begins today on the NaNoWriMo web site...
Today’s word count is 41,675! Questions? Comments? Favorite writing snack food? An apple is good but I would avoid any handed out by an evil queen disguised as an old woman peddler… just saying ;-) Keep writing!

Date: 2011-11-25 10:44 am (UTC)Murphy's Law is currently happening to my main characters (okay, the one last thing that could have gone wrong would be if they had been blamed for the event...which could still happen when I start editing.) and now my MC is looking forward to staying up for the rest of the night, wrapped up in a blanket after being out in the heavy rain, with no change of clothes either, while her partner is laid out on the bed after getting stabbed in the gut (but at least ze has good healing). And the person who did the stabbing is still running free.
Yeah. My characters totally hate me. XD;;

5k in a day is quite an accomplishment, too; I hit 3k twice this year, and both times it made me feel like my eyes were melting.

Date: 2011-11-28 04:45 am (UTC)Looking back, I'm also amazed by those 5k words. My brain should have melted with the horror of seeing so many plotholes. But hey, editing.

Date: 2011-11-25 06:58 pm (UTC)Favorite writing snack food? No apples. :p I stick to chocolate. :D All kind of chocolate. Pure chocolate, hot choco with wipped cream, a cookie with chocolate, a chocolate muffin, a muffin with little chocolate pieces, chocolate ice cream, ... Anything that has anything of chocolate in it. :p

Date: 2011-11-26 02:09 am (UTC)Wordcount: 57,021. That's most of 3k today - repeat that tomorrow (well. Later today!) and I'm home! >D
...Then I'll just have about another 60,000-100,000 words left in the story to write. ^^;;;;;;;
