I finished my book in 19 days!! It topped out at 90,155 words according to my computer's word counter. BUT-this is a huge but- NaNo's word counter says I only wrote 89,907 words. Where the heck did 248 words go? Is NaNo just being mean? Is NaNo running a conspiracy against me? Or were the 248 words in question so horribly written that the NaNo system rejected them?lol.
But seriously, I don't care. I finished the book!! I'm pretty surprised. YAY for NaNo! I think I'll do this every year! It got me out of my writing rut. And I can't put too fine a point on just how amazing this experience has been.
Chris Baty totally rocks!!
How is your writing going? I'm really just proud of everyone who took up this challenge regardless of word count!

Congrats on finishing! That's awesome!! I'm doing pretty good. I'm confident I'll hit 50k but I don't know how much I'll go over it. I've slowed down a bit. We'll see!
Sweetie, I'm sorry I'm four days late in saying it, but CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!!!!
holy crap! 90,000 words in less than 30 days? This amazes me. Congratulations!
