Punch the button, because I’m calling it at 55,000. GHOSTS ON AN ALIEN WIND is a mess that will require more words and entire sections written, or rewritten; but the plot works and I can come back to it after I lick TINSEL RAIN into shape. And at 55K it’s above the ‘official’ target number. I’m well-content.
Really, I have absolutely nothing against either the Boy or the Girl Scouts. My wife was a Girl Scout. And yet…
Technically, everything after this is gravy because the target number for NaNoWriMo is 50,000. In my opinion, the more I can do of this, the better. I’m going to have to bump it up to 80,000 words anyway before I can send it out.
It’s alarming how easy it’s been to write this part.
Had a lot of stuff to do today, but I persevered.
I kind of had a half day off today, and writing right now feels like a chore and not a pleasure, so I’m not going to force it. I’ll hit the target number of 50,000 without question, and can still make it to 60,000 if I push it. If I do, I do.
Minor crises today, after all. But we prevail!
