If you have signed up for the 2007 Challenge, this is the official Word Count Thread (meaning this is where we'll track the numbers from so you have to be on this thread).
I am still waiting for confirmation of EMAIL addresses from eight wouldbe participants for the competition, please see the post on the "rematch thread"--if your name has an asterisk beside it, that means I don't have your email address...Please get it to me. (this post updated 11/4 6:43PM)
Please post to this thread JUST ONCE
Once everyone has posted to this thread, we will lock it for tracking purposes.
------------------
So please post only ONCE.
------------------
ALERT!!!! Without giving me an EMAIL address, you cannot participate in the Challenge.
Please send me your EMAIL ADDRESS. Thanks much, I'd hate for anyone who wants to be in the challenge to lose out because I don't have their email address. And remember, this thread isn't for chat, just for tracking purposes. For chatting, use the "Trash Talkin'" Thread please.
And remember this thread will be locked after MIDNIGHT, 11/5 so if you are a challenge participant, post just once here please, it is required.
Thanks,
Carol
----Alert has been updated, please read, I still have many who have NOT given me their email addresses..thanks!

Here I am *waves hand*!
Warning to all: make sure you sign in earlier in the day if you plan to post a word count that night. I could not get signed in, and so my word count for Nov 1 is showing up in Nov 2. GRRR.
Go Marylanders!

Hi everyone. Ok, I'm actually posting my count on Nov 2, but it's the wee hours, so in my parallel universe, that's counts as punctual.

Hello, all! :waves:
I usually have two writing sessions per day, pre-work and post-work, and update my count at each of those times. My daily goal is 2000 words -- so far, so good!

I just signed up for the MD-Texas challenge this morning in a fit of insanity. This is my first NaNo, and I'm embracing the "quantity, not quality" mantra.

Wielder of the Vorpal Blade of Great Wordliness reporting in! Despite migraine and sleep issues, I hit just over 9200 words on 11/1.
Today, I bring out the big hammer. My personal goal, and this is a challenge to you all: is to finish the base NaNo count by 11/7. It can be done.
It will be done.
Watch my word count meter.

Ack! I'm posting after Caeraerie!
Slow start and I didn't manage to upload 11/1's word count until this morning. My family is not being the most helpful and actually neither is the school district because Howard County schools are out today. Seriously don't they know I need to write 50,000 words of crap this month? lol

Hi!
Am tempted to try to do 10K words every day till I hit 50K, but then I worry I'd get burnt out on it. So I think I'm just going to write until I get tired of writing and if I make that much? More power to me! ;)

I'm here! Currently nano-ing away at work, making up for the lack of time I had yesterday (boo low word count!) and typing everything I had to write by hand!

Haven't done diddley yet today but not for lack of interest. Work so interferes with more important things. At 1727, I'm happy that I at least made above the minimum for the day to be on track for 50K Here's hoping I can add a little padding to it over the weekend.
Updated: Whoopee! Found time to add another 550 or so before Midnight. Going to grab a bite -- pound a few more before bed then get up for the Towson write in. Shooting to be at 5K or better by this time tomorrow.

I'm here, and I'll do the best I can, but I'm feeling quite technologically challenged today because I can't even remember how to post my word count! Doing my best...to post yesterday's word count today.
