Another exciting milestone...

So I am at 11,500 words (approx.). It's very exciting! I think cresting over the 10,000 is a big step for me.

So here's the word count widget. I am going to try to put it up as a gadget later. Not sure how to do it though.

NaNoWriMo Update...

Reached 5,000 words for my NaNoWriMo. Still waiting for them to put up he word count widgets or APIs. I'm a bit behind but I'm working hard to catch up. Got a new computer, it was a bit distracting over the weekend. I have to make up for it now. Well I hope I can double my word count by the end of today.

Now I just have to stop myself from playing Morrowind and reading American Gods for long enough to write another 5,000 words.

Only a NaNoWriMo away...

I am going to be participating in NaNoWriMo this year. I have spent the last few months researching and outlining this novel. I am not really sure how advance it past a certain point, but my hope is that I figure it out as I'm writing it. Mostly I just want the practice that happens to come with writing 50,000 words in a month. I hope that the novel I thought up is good enough that when I finish I have something I can edit and later use, but I'd be happy so long as I finish it. Good or not. I'll try to figure out how to put up a wordcount somewhere on here to keep everyone updated on my progress. Wish me luck, I'm going to need it.
