Race to 50k http://www.nanowrimo.org/en/forums/usa-district-of-columbia/threads/82804 Kataphract85 Hey all! It's insanity time! I want to challenge everyone to try to get to 50k this November, and to those overachievers this year, I want to see how quickly a DC Nanite can get to 50k! I know some people on the forums have somehow already gotten there! I'm not that awesome, sadly. If I can manage to write at least 5k words a day (a huge challenge as 5k is a VERY good day of writing for me) I could probably finish the goal by the 11th or within 10 days or so. I'm currently at about 7k, and I'll write some more later today. Anyone want to have a regional race to see who can get to 50k first? I don't have a prize except for the bragging rights involved, but it could be fun! Who will race me to 50? (Not to fifty!)

However, I am off to a good start with 5k my first day (although just 1,700 on the second) and I hope to reach 50k considerably earlier than the thirtieth. We shall see.

Hopefully will be to 7,500 be the end of Saturday. I've hit of bit of a snag but if I can get past that I'll hopefully do more.

No one is stopping you! Come on, write write write!

Keep up the good work man you're on track to win with a comfortable margin! 25 k before the third week begins is most excellent! Well, I am a bit crazy right now. Writing through the night (cackles and cracks his knuckles) Ahahahahah! Going to get to 50 and beyond!
