NaNoWriMo 2011 - Day 25

[ladyseishou]

Day 25 - 5 days remaining

In 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!

Ha. The validator actually added to my word count - 200 words, in fact. XDD

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;;

For some reason I'm off by a word this year on the validator. Just one word. (I'm off by the same number of words when I check with wc, so I suspect it's the same word, I just don't know which it is...)

[yifu]

I crossed the 50k line :) The story might have ended, as well. Weird ending, but there's always editing. That's 5,000 words today. (zzz)

Word Wars!!!! Just had to say that. ♥
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

Woot! Finished and validated! Finally won after a random 3k words. For once I finished the story during Nano as well. :D

Being allergic to ((TOO MUCH)) apples, I think I'm safe from the evil queens, unless they start in on chocolate. XD Dark, dairy-and-corn-free chocolate. Especially Bendicks' Bittergingers. *happy sigh at the thought of the box downstairs*

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. ^^;;;;;;;

Finally got some words and got up to 46,023. That's what Scrivener says I've got; the validator is quite insistent on eating 200 of those. :( But I'll still get there. If only I can avoid getting horribly sick....

Writing snack food: tea. Seriously. Food is variable, tea is imperative.
