Almost there!
November 26th 2008 08:07
I'm sitting at just over 275K now and I wanted to pop in to say congratulations to everyone who's on their way to finishing Nano, or who already has finished. I've seen quite a few people with validated winner bars on the forums in the last few days and I can see so many who are on their way.
Even if you wrote one word this month-congratulations. Even if you just wandered the forums and didn't get anything done at all-congratulations.
You signed up-and there's always next year, right?
Keep in mind that there will only be a next year if they get enough donations to keep the site up and running though; and that takes a lot of money for a site as big and as active as Nano:
Really Long Link is where you can donate if you want to sponsor my writing.
Now that Nanowrimo's almost over I want to talk about its upcoming offshoot, NaNoFiMo. Fifty thousand words is not always enough to finish a novel-and in my case, I'm definitely not going to be finishing Fallen by the end of the month, which will probably end up around 60K then. (I've got about 20K left to write and about 30K on the story so far.)
NaNoFiMo is a challenge to finish the novel you started in November-or any other novel that you've started and not yet finished. Any unfinished WIP is eligible, though it was originally started as an offspring of Nanowrimo.
This challenge starts on December 1st, and in that month you are expected to write 30K or however much it takes to finish your novel. (No one's going to scold you if you don't quite make it.) The site can be found here:
http://nanofimo.org
I'm 'Lithy' on there if you want to find me. Registration is officially open, so go ahead and sign up; and get ready for productivity challenge number two.
Thanks to everyone who's been reading and putting up with me all month, by the way.
