Happy Dance. Woo Hoo! Wocka Wocka. Hubba Hubba. I did it! OMG. I wrote FIFTY THOUSAND TWO HUNDRED AND EIGHTY NINE WORDS in 29 days! My Word document word counter says 50,356, and the nano validator says 50,289. But really, who's counting? Well, I am, obviously, but I am not going to sweat the small stuff.
Please to do not ask to see an excerpt before August of 2015, at which time I might be brave enough to open the file again and take another look.
Okay. I'm going to go get something to eat and see if I can find something tear-jerky to watch on In Demand. I was compelled to post two things on Facebook today that made me cry--one was a youtube video by Pixar about "It Gets Better". The other was about the medical transport teams that take injured troops from Afghanistan to Germany. And it didn't have a happy ending. I mean, at least, not for the kid they profiled. Hopefully many more of the guys they transport come out okay.
Okay, I'm done typing for today. I really mean it. As soon as I figure out how to put the little "NaNo Winner" thingy on my blog.
C Ya!
Congrats!!! I'm so glad you made it. And before the last day, too. Your doing it this year helped spur me on to the finish. So thanks for being a writing buddy.
ReplyDeleteI opened up my NaNo story today and started rewriting the opening scene. So maybe it won't take you until 2015 to get back to yours. :) I'd spent so much time with it this month that after a week of largely ignoring it, I had to get back and work on it again.
Woohoo! Congratulations all around!!!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations! That's awesome. :)
