I don't know if any of you have noticed, but we are getting seriously whipped by Dekalb. Now, some of us have put in outstanding efforts to reach and even exceed the 50K mark, and they should be applauded. The rest of us (present company included, of course)... well, we need to get our rear ends into gear.
I mean, really. Do we want to let ourselves get beaten AGAIN, by a city whose only claim to fame is being the home of barbed wire? No. No, we don't.
We are the City of Lights. Granted, in a time of global warming where we happen to be the number one polluters per capita on the planet, this may not be something we can be so proud of... but for the month of November, Perthians, don't hide that light under a bushel! Burn the midnight oil! And follow whatever other environmentally unfriendly cliches you can, for we can do it! We can win! GO PERTH!!!
Is that inspirational, or what? Never mind, don't answer that, just get back to your novels.

Well, you've inspired me to update my word count for the first time in a week. That gives us a further 13,000 words :-).

I'll eventually update my word count too. That should help some.
Your pep talk was inspiring. We WILL kick their buts. They must not be allowed to brag again. *nods*
EDIT: There, another 7k or so.

Updated, and now that all of my assignments are done I'll be writing a whole lot more, so hopefully that'll help.
Go Perth, we're doing well :)
