Word count on the grow :D

Posted by WritersBlock - November 18th, 2009


I'd like to think that some of you guys are following my progress through National Novel Writing Month. I'm tearing up the word count with my shit hot steampunk adventure novel. If you're a little confused, I'll fill you in. I'm writing a 50,000 novel over the 30 days of November. You can read what I've got so far here. It's hell good. You won't be disappointed.

So I'm 18 days in and I'm still ploughing through the words, which is MORE THAN I CAN SAY FOR THIS GUY. >:( WE HAD PLANS TO SHOW OUR NOVELS TO THE WORLD TOGETHER. Instead I'm following along with a bunch of writers in the South Perth area, and am currently neck-and-neck with one writer, and it's turning into a bit of a word war, which is doing wonders for my word count.

So anyway, all this talk of my word count and I haven't told you guys what it is yet. I'm currently on 29,031. I'll pass 30,000 tomorrow easily and on Friday I should be able to tear it up even more as it's my day off. 20,000 words to go and still kicking ass. Characters are preparing for a war.

My NaNoWriMo profile, for those of you who feel like hardcore stalking me and my ever-growing word count.

I'll see you guys on the other side of November, where you can tell me how brilliant my novel was.

Pft, it's not my fault I ended up with a shitty plot line...That and I'm a short story writer more than a novelist.

It's not your fault you gave up? :3
You keep telling yourself that.

You didn't need to link me to your NaNoWriMo Profile to stalk you, Us good stalkers already had it :3

Lmao.

Yeah, blaming everything and everyone else usually leaves me with a better self-esteem anyway. I'll just blame the weather on my story ending up bad.

Lol, k.

I see that you've finished. Congratulations.
