1,439 / 85,000 (1.7%) WC: 1439 The third day is where I started kicking NaNo’s ass last year. Let’s hope that holds true for this year, too. BUT – I now have plot cards written up through the second major plot twist — and that’s about 2/3 of the way…
430 / 85,000 (0.5%) WC: 430 LOL – what a start, eh? But since it was just last night that the plot bunny bit, I spent much of my writing time today plotting and such. Tomorrow I expect a prodigious word count. *grins*
