25,000

November is half over, and so is National Novel Writing Month. Thankfully, I am still on schedule and half way to the month’s target of 50,000 words. Most of the time I still can’t believe that I’ve gotten has far as I have, and then at other times I am sure I’ll finish before the November 30th deadline. I also still get really giddy when I see the bar graph chart of my stats grow with my increasing numbers, as well as when I open up my word document and the page numbers and word count grow really fast as it’s all being added up.

Before the month began I will say that part of me was really worried I wouldn’t be able to keep up before I started this thing, or that it would take so much time that I would be unable to do anything else. Thankfully writing is not the only thing I’m doing. I was fearful that this month I’d basically have to cut myself off and stay in my writer cave only to emerge for work. I definitely am writing a lot more, although not as much here, which is something I regret, but trust me, I am writing a lot more than usual. I am still really shocked and pumped even with it being half way over. Since I am so excited by all of this I wanted to share some stats.
