Anti-Nano Check In


 
Show me what you got, people. 

I'm up to this much on Night and Chaos:

21333 / 30000
(71.11%)

I'm thinking 30k is now a conservative estimate for the first draft - I might be edging closer to 40 - 50k, by which time I may as well just give up and write a novel. Anyway, I am currently managing 1k a day. How about the rest of you?

¬¬ I only just got to writing last night and it was only a meager 1800 words. Blurgh. I'm days behind! I also realize that I don't remember this book (that I'm rewriting) as well as I thought. Before I can get to the fine details, I really need to go through the rewrite and make a good outline of the little details to make sure I'm not just making the same canon-trashing mistakes I made in the original!

This is Anti-Nano though - do not be beholden by the rules you set yourself before, for they can be maellable and changed to suit your progress! I think 1800 is pretty good for a day's work in any csae.
