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 suck. I'm supposed to be writing the Wendy and the Werewolves novel, and instead, I'm meebling about post-apocalypse dystopias and in generally accomplishing nothing.

OK, no, that's a lie. I have three open documents with 519, 157, 761 and words, but it's still not as much as I'd hoped to have by this time. It's entirely possible that I may have burned myself out creatively with all the other stuff I did this year. *sigh*

Although, technically, the 1st of the month I was at my grandparents, the 2nd was spent moving, and the last three days have been full of school stuff, so I suppose I could use that as an excuse. I'm not sure how much writing I'll get done this weekend - I'm going to visit my other grandmother, and I have studying to do, *sigh*.

Lol, yeah, that sounds like a good excuse to me! But hey, under the rules of Anti-Nano, thinking about writing counts.
