If you're still with us, why not join in. Weekend Challenge #3 (so far it's a trilogy), 7500 words over Fri-Sunday (2500/day).

This could be a help for us heading into Thanksgiving to build those counts up a little on the "off chance" we miss Thursday.

My start count this a.m was 26,111.

Sure. I'll do it. Maybe I can get more than that. I'm attempting to get ahead so I won't be glued to my computer screen next week when I'm at my Grandma's. Who knows, maybe I will be anyway. Hmm...

And succeeded, apparantly. ;)

I'm checking in after finishing for Saturday at 25,366.

I'm still playing catchup from those first few days where I wrote hardly anything. I think I'm almost back to where I need to be. :D

Getting there slowly but surely!

I'm checking in at the end of the weekend (and wondering where my fellow participants are :( )

I was successful! I reached 27,880 and I'm almost back to where I should be. Perhaps by Thanksgiving I'll be all caught up. :D

Woo hoo! Did 2500 Friday, 3000 yesterday, and a good 2500 today.

Still behind Tikatu, but determined to catch her. :)

I hit 35K on the dot and was so pleased my writing brain shut down, otherwise I think I could have pulled out another 3K today. But my brain says, "ooh! look! pretty!"

*Sighs. Sits down at computer and stares at feet...*
I didn't make it. I got about 2600 words all weekend. I don't know what happened. I've kind of hit a hard spot. It was like pulling teeth, but all kinds of different things are happening - which is kind of good. I think. My MC was invited to meet my villain. She hasn't decided if she will though.
Today, I couldn't write for anything. I had to pack for vacation and I cleaned my room at the same time. Then I took a nap and swore at my computer. I was in a bad mood okay? Blame it on the zombies. It's always their fault!
*Sigh* I have a 10-12 hour car ride tomorrow. Maybe I can write some then. Who knows....

I did it.
Crossed over 7500 words at 11:15 last night. And finished with 9 words to spare.
