Diana's Writing Blog

Well, I typed the words “The End” just now. It’s finally done! There are parts that should be fleshed out and parts that should be cut back or reworked, but it’s done. And it came out pretty well, if I do say so myself. And this way I can take the next week off to prepare for T-Day. Yay!

So I stayed up till 1 am last night (this morning?) because I got on a roll outlining. I decided divine intervention is how my character’s problems will be solved. That and a love potion.

So my new goal is to finish the novel by the end of November, which oddly enough has me writing more a day than when I was just working to hit 50,000 words. I’ve very proud of me, though. I trained hard and I pushed hard to win NaNo WriMo this year.

So, here’s my writing progress for today. It’ll probably be slightly less from here on out, since I actually have stuff to do at work again. *Sigh*

Hey, so, if you take a little look at my NaNo WriMo progress bar (under In Progress), you’ll see that I hit 50k today. So, yay! Except I’m only about 2/3rds done. If that. And I’m stuck on how how to surmount this insurmountable challenge I set in front of my characters. So, damn….

But I’ll keep working at it. My new goal is to finish this novel by Nov. 31st, no matter how many words it takes. Unless it’s over 100,000. Then I just quit.

Also, I’d like to note that work has been SLOW this month, which is how I could accomplish this magical feat.

Anyway, progress box:
