National Novel Writing FEBRUARY 2012
Posted: February 1st, 2012, 10:36 am
Okay, who's up for another go? 30,000 words in a month, 50,000 if you're feeling ambitious (and I am). One post per person, edited as often as necessary to reflect updated word counts.
2/01: 1900
2/02: 2900
2/03: 0 (because ppl wouldn't leave me the heck alone...going to start turning off cell phone as well as internet)
2/04: 3000
2/05: 3100
2/06: 2300
2/07: 2700
2/08: 2300
2/09: 5500
2/10: 0 (tired, took day off)
2/11: 0 (business matter to attend to)
2/12: 4800
2/13: 3500
2/14: 1500
2/15: 2100
2/16: 3100
2/17-2/20: 0 (dealing with some very bad news on the personal front)
2/21: 1900 (back in the saddle)
2/22: 700
2/23-2/26: 0 (sometimes it really bites running a business--in addition to the day job)
2/27: 1900
Total for Feb: 43,200
Edit 2/01: Glad to see you guys back! I smile when I see it too, AMSchilling, but for a completely different (and totally immoral) reason.
Edit 2/02: Welcome back, guys! It was inspiring seeing everyone's word counts come up last month. Do it again! Do it again!
Edit 2/05: Glad you joined us, Matt. It's a good way to work up your writing endurance! AMschilling, you don't have to subtract words you edited out. You still drafted them! They count even if they don't make the cut!
Edit 2/07: Seeing some nice totals from Trixie and Matt!
Edit 2/10: Don't stress, guys! Just start fresh tomorrow (or whenever you can get some time away from family, in poor Aimee's case ).
Edit 2/10 (not at 1AM this time): Way to go, Matt and Brenda. Nice looking numbers.
Edit 2/12: A day off well-earned, Matt.
Edit 2/13: I hope the protest helps, Claudie. AIMEE! Oh, no. I'm so sorry to hear it. You are taking it amazingly well. So glad the lost words are not slowing you down.
Edit 2/21: Oh, those are some nice numbers, Matt. Well done.
Edit 2/27: Well done, Matt. And Claudie. 100 pages of critique? WOW.
