NaNoWriMo 2013 Ends.

NaNoWriMo ended 3 minutes ago, and I proudly present my final word count for NaNoWriMo 2013:
32,168

Yeah, I have to say I'm proud. I'm glad I exceeded last year's 17,445 and I'm glad I count my story as a not-failure, especially considering the quality of its predecessor. Congratulations to everyone as NaNo '13 comes to a close! : ) I achieved my goal of 30K and even got the 32K I was praying for! I think it was worth the hour I spent every night writing and I'm proud of myself for accomplishing the student goal, at least.

Hope everyone has enjoyable holidays, birthdays, and summers and all that--might not write on here again until October 31 2014!

NaNo Update--11.27

So NaNoWriMo 2013 is coming to an end and last year I epically failed with only 17,445 words and now I've got 28,461! So that's nice. I think by the way things are going, I'm aiming for 30,000, maybe 32K. But I'm only on chapter 8 out of 18, which makes me sad because I've really grown to love my story so much and I doubt I'd be motivated to write much after this whole thing is over, which is unfortunate! How grand it would be to complete my novel, perhaps with 60, 70K words in it, even if it takes a year! I wish I could see the day it could be complete! I can only hope I remain motivated to see the end of that thing.

Hope all is well with anyone else's novels as November comes to a close.
P.S. Happy Thanksgiving!
