15k Day (Reward Yourself!) http://www.nanowrimo.org/en/forums/word-wars-prompts-sprints/threads/41341 missmandapants So yesterday I meant to do a 10k day but I didn't quite make it (darn you Skyrim and other distractions). So, today is a 15k day and now that it's going to be on the forums, I have to hold myself to it. To make this easier and more of a desire rather than just something I must do.. I'm rewarding myself. Silly little rewards, but they're justified in this case I think. For my first 5k, I get a fun-sized kit-kat bar. For my second 5k I get some apple soda. For my third 5k I get to try and play Skyrim. If not.. I clean my room. (Lame). So here we go, starting at the :44 for 20 minutes, shooting for about 1.5k.

Decided that I was not going to make it to words-written goals, due to the difference between WriteWay's tracker and NaNo's tracker (some of WW's Tuesday total is counted as Wednesday total on NaNo). So the new one is thresholds! First threshold was 22k. Just reached it, so my reward was to create the cover art for my novel (I think I'm just going to get it printed off at Staples or something and coil-bound). Second threshold is 25k. I'll create the back art for the novel then! Third threshold is 30k. I might break from "Tennant Academy" then to work on some fanfics instead (you'd think by now, I *know* that if I watch something, I'm going to want to write those fanfics and not my novel...)

Due to unforeseeable circumstances (AKA me falling asleep while watching my sitcom...), I have decided to extend the 15k Day challenge to a 15k in 24 hours challenge. This means I have until 7pm tonight to finish my 9k.
