My actual count is 41,414 but thought I'd post this for anyone that's hitting 40k. :D Hoping tomorrow is the day that I can get over the line, praying that the plot holds up and that there's no unforeseen circumstances.
I'm at 4lk as of last night, but am taking tonight off, other than reading some posts. This is my first NaNo and I was pretty nervous. The freedom to lock away my editor has really made a difference and the words flow much easier. I may not have 41k good words, but they're words and give me something to edit next month.
Yay! I just crossed into 40K land. I'm so impressed with all the writers who are past 50,000, but I'm no less impressed with myself for getting this far!
the last 10k, or the more the better? i hit the 40k also just a few momentas ago :D but i'm still in the plot deployment. seems to be as gigant as the universe the whole thing is taking place in..
I hit 40k half an hour ago ... will try and finish the story this month, but it's going way over 50k, so ... tomorrow, it'll be the last 10k stretch up to 50k, then I can relax a bit. =)
My goal is to finish the book this month, but I have a little over half left, unless I find I don't write as much as I thought. Still, feeling pretty good about finishing the book. I cannot wait!
My goal was to make it to 40K by this weekends end and I did it! Just barely! God, I am so worn out. No writing Monday unless I just have this NEED to.
Just made 40k a couple hours ago. I was going to call it a night at 38,500, but I thought... "I'm so close!" And just pushed straight through until I got the big 40,000!
Just crossed the border into 40K. For me, that means I'm halfway done. (I'm aiming for 80K this year.) Good luck to everyone still fighting the good fight. I just hope I can keep up this pace all the way to the bittersweet end.
Yaaaaaaay! 40k in 14 days is a massive, massive effort for me, especially with full time work and the standard life commitments in the mix. I was aiming for 70k this month, but the story may not need it in the end - mostly I just really want to FINISH a first draft so I can do some edits in January. I am hoping this year will be the year!
Anyway - huzzah for making it to 40k! Now, onward!
I made 40k right as my parents were yelling at me to go to bed yesterday. Now that last 10k stretch is going to be the hardest. I'm winding down my plot but I'm not sure that I can make it to 50k before I end it! :O
40k! :)
Anyone near the final 10k stretch? :D
My actual count is 41,414 but thought I'd post this for anyone that's hitting 40k. :D Hoping tomorrow is the day that I can get over the line, praying that the plot holds up and that there's no unforeseen circumstances.
Keep going all. :D

Currently at 38 159, I am going to cross the magic 40k line today. =)
Then, tomorrow ... I'll write the last 10k and just be happy.

I have no idea how this happened, not even halfway through the month... Well, apart from the obvious that there was typing involved...
