You may be well ahead, you may be far behind. But if you're right on schedule (1667 per day), then today - Day 6 - is the day you reach the 10K landmark.
Congrats all!

No erasing. No editing. but don't get to excited. Stream of consciousness is
not exactly READABLE stuff....eventually I will have to TELL this monster of a story.....
Just sheer typing. i am both energized AND dead tired.
For all who have made it this far--- my hat goes off to you BIG TIME cause this ain't easy.

What's up Alienor,
Well,.. don't get to excited... I am going BACK TO THE BEGINNING
now to write it coherently....
Just thought I'd share my new count of the edited form: 204!!!
(I know that I am NOT suppose to edit... but I really can't sumbit that initial
draft... it is A MESS!!!!!!!!!!!!! While it is beginnning middle end, it is
only action and dialogue. Like a screenplay. it is more a construct of
a novel than any novel I ever read. But I like to write the first draft this way
because it prevents me from getting to bogged down.)
204 words. ok
hahaahhah
oh crap. here we go.
Realistically I knew that, 80% of the 54,000 I wrote at best will
make it into the draft that I will submit on Nov. 25.
I am hurting so badly.
But I can do it.
I CAN DO IT! (or not).
cheers
