I wrote 7 pages in longhand today. That's 3,500 words at the very least, and most of it wasn't conversation. Geh.

Yeah, still writing Nano, despite the break for anthropomorphication smut :) I have 20,500 words down typed and 33 pages written. At average, in the previous notbook I had 550 words per page; this one doesn't have side margins, just top and bottom. I think I might actually stand a chance of winning Nanowrimo. Yay me.

The book itself? Going along nicely. I've been surprised quite a few times at how much some characters evolved. At those 35,000 to 40,000 words, I'm barely through the halfway point of the book, maybe less. And I've found out that I can write that many, in three weeks, and neither feel particularly burned out on writing nor disinterested in my story. I'm really glad I went on with this :)

Oh, and I heard something about a certain someone who just appeared on the last episode of Angel. Since they're re-running season two right here and my attraction to him is at a high again, guess what I'm downloading on Bittorrent ^__^ Woo!

20,050 over 14 days, on 4 of which I did not write a single word. And I can't believe myself. And the plot setup is more or less complete. Which means I'll be lucky if the finished book doesn't go over 80,000. Eeep.

oh my gods

12500 words done. A bloody quarter of the novel.

Note to self: if I ever put in an outline "A meets B and they talk" and don't mention the exact subjects of the talk, I will quite possibly stab myself with a stake. Done this twice now, and I'm sure I knew what the conversations were going to be about when I outlined that bit.

Has anyone else ever had this problem?

First, yay for Nano-induced productivity :) I managed to finish and edit the pesky fourth chapter of Clamp Campus X and now only need to edit the fifth and final one before posting it tomorrow.

*sighs* I need to rant about my Nanowrimo novel somewhere. There'll be more of it here throughout November.
