Okay, so it's November 1st where I am. Here is a thread for everyone to brag and/or whine about their word count as the month progresses.

Have fun everyone!

Me? I haven't started yet. I have the dentist in 2.5 hours, only just woke up... Maybe I'll do something when I get home with a numb mouth? :tongue

I'm mentally gearing up for tomorrow. I'm not totally out of shape, writing wise, but I'm nowhere near where I should be to keep up at NaNoWriMo pace. This is gonna make or break me, just like last year.

This will be my first time ever trying NaNo, and I'm a little nervous but excited too. Midnight is not for another 8 or so hours, so I still have time to do some last minute prep before I start writing. :) Current word count: 0.

Just under three hours to go here till my first NaNo. I think I'd like to write a token hundred words or so after midnight - official starting time and all that - and then I'll go to bed. Then I'll get up tomorrow and write THOUSANDS. :) (Positive thinking!)

I may spend the next three hours thinking about what my opening sentence will be. Hmmm....

going to try to write up to 1000 words tonight before I go to bed (I'm a bit optimistic only because it's the first day) haha. Good luck everyone, and Happy Halloween :D

Good luck, oh writers in the future. ;) I'm in one of the last time zones to start, so I'll be waiting impatiently...

Well, I wrote 300 words. They don't really count for anything... They were an intro to my final University assignment for the year. :tongue

Going to read my WIP now - want to finish reading it so I know where I'm up to when I start writing.

Still got 2.5 hours to go here. I was gonna stay up and crank out 1000 words after midnight, but I've come down sick today. JUST TODAY!!! ARGH. I am sooo mad.

But I will definitely get words in before midnight tomorrow. Somehow!

I have an hour and ten minutes until midnight here. And I have swapped the projects I want to write (I have lots of them) for NaNo three times already... I will try to stay up until two a.m and see how much can I write within this time.

Been reading my WIP, laughing quite a bit. (It's a comedy, so laughter is good!)

It'll probably be tomorrow by the time I'm done reading it. Still have Uni work to go on with too...

3000 before good night. More tomorrow, maybe up to 10k.

you're even more optimistic than I am! I am up to about 685 words my minimum goal before I go to bed is 1000 as I said. (may have started slightly early but I was too excited!) this is more than I've written in a LONG time. It really does feel liberating to just write. Especially after a month of strictly planning. I feel that words are just pouring out. I'm not letting myself reread what I wrote at all. I know that would really stop me. I'm saving that for the editing stage. As it should be. Happy Writing :)
