Being sick for five days has probably taken me out of the running. I haven’t updated more than 900 words in the last week. I’d have to kick in about 8000 words today, and the same tomorrow, to finish. And I still have a job.
But I think I will try anyway. Let’s just see what happens.

I wish you luck!
On a different note, I really enjoyed Bible study last night and look forward to the discussion next week.
Thanks. And thanks.
I think it’s a relevant topic at any time, and going into the second half of Revelation 13 it will bear a lot of what is coming.
I’m gonna prolly finish with less than a thousand words. I guess that makes me the biggest loser?
I didn’t even know you were doing it! And I certainly wouldn’t say that. Maybe it just means you have your priorities right, while I’m spending every available moment in between waiting for things here at work thinking about The Novel rather than the notes I should be handing out tonight for next Wednesday’s bible study, and so forth.
I never did really participate, in the full sense of the word. I signed up initially for the reminder, not realizing it would put me into the fire. I got the profile set up, and thought I’d try to do 15 minutes a day, just to see what my output was. It became clear pretty quickly that based on my pace, I would never hit 50,000 words in a month, b/c it would take about 3-4 hours a day. So after a week, I let it slide.
According to your nanowrimo counter, you made it!!!!
Congrats!!!!
(I knew you could do it!)
Now, when are you going to share??? There are many of us that can’t wait any longer for your next published fiction!
Thanks. Boy, that was grueling at the end. 17,000 words in 36 hours.
I am so sick of typing.
Share… well, the story’s not done. In fact, it’s taken such turns that the beginning doesn’t even make sense anymore. If it had to be a cohesive 50K words, I wouldn’t have won. So, I’ll take a little break, but having gotten as far as I did, I think I’m going to have to finish it someday, now, just to get the story out of my system completely before the Next Big Thing.
I think I’ll do this again next year, though. It was kind of a rush at the end.
