1842 words today. Less than 1700 to go to hit 50k! I’ll finish tomorrow. #NaNoWriMo

1767 words today. Got an early start, because I’ll be traveling home today and I’m afraid I’ll be too tired to write. Finished the final epic battle. Crushing towards the denouement. At 46.5k total. #NaNoWriMo

2106 words today. It’s fun writing epic magical battles! Just shy of 45k. #NaNoWriMo

1716 words. Had to get them down early today, in light of the holiday. Big climactic battle happening now! Just over 42.5k words! #NaNoWriMo

1702 words tonight. They were a little harder in coming for some reason. But they came. Just shy of 41k. I can see the end in sight! #NaNoWriMo

1684 words. I’ll cross 40k tomorrow. Setting up the climax. So I think I’ll be long, but that’s better than being short. #NaNoWriMo

1765 words today. Due to some Thanksgiving travel, I wasn’t sure I was going to make today’s goal. But I persevered. Now, just over 37.5k and 75% of the way to the goal! #NaMoWriMo

1715 words today. And they were some fun words to write. I can see the turn to the climax in my sights! #NaNoWriMo
November 20, 2023 at 4:23 AM
1725 words today. Crossed 34k. And I can see the light at the end of the tunnel, though I suspect this book will be longer than 50k. #NaNoWriMo

1732 words. Things are starting to get good! Almost 32.5k words! #NaNoWriMo

Only 1672 words today, but that meets the quota! Crossed 30k. And things are getting good! Tomorrow is going to be so fun to write! #NaNoWriMo

1736 words today. Just shy of 29k. A little harder today. But I got it done. And had some fun! #NaNoWriMo
November 16, 2023 at 4:08 AM
1680 words today. Just over 27k total. I am starting to see what people mean about the 30k word slump. But I’m still feeling pretty good and I have a plan to get over the hump. #NaNoWriMo
November 15, 2023 at 4:08 AM
1808 words today. I’ve crossed the halfway point! #NaNoWriMo
November 14, 2023 at 4:27 AM
1679 words today. Almost exactly the same as yesterday. Should cross the halfway mark tomorrow. And I think I have a solution to the knot I tied earlier. #NaNoWriMo

1677 today. Weekends are definitely harder to find the time, surprisingly. But I made my daily numbers! #NaNoWriMo
November 12, 2023 at 4:06 AM
1915 words today on the WIP. Crossed 20k! I’ve gotten myself into a bit of a plot thicket, but I’m sure I’ll find my way out. Even if it’s in the rewrite! #NaNoWriMo
November 11, 2023 at 4:17 AM
2239 words today. That’s more like it! #NaNoWriMo
November 10, 2023 at 4:07 AM
1729 words today. Didn’t get as much writing time as I’d hoped. But I crossed 16k. I’ll cross the 1/3 mark tomorrow ahead of schedule! #NaNoWriMo

1861 words. A slow day, by comparison. But I’m around 14.5k in a week, which is more than I usually write. I can see why people talk about the slog!

Just realized I forgot to update last night. Crossed 12.5k! 25% done with NaNoWriMo! (Unsure about the novel)
