Hehe, Hi Gaye!
Well, I can't seem to disassociate NaNoWriMo writing and NaNoWriMo forums :-) It's all just too good to miss.
You'll be pleased to know I've just had my best ever session - 1589 words in 47 minutes. Not bad eh? See you later this afternoon with my purple bar!

I have only done NaNo half as much as you, but this has also been the hardest year for me.
I started the day needing just over 10,000 words and had about 13 hours in which to write. (Why did it have to be today that I actually slept in after a full nights worth of sleep?)
So far I've spent half of the two hours since turning on my laptop procrastinating (hence me being on the forums here) and have written just over 1,500 words.
I don't intend to ever plan ahead again.

Write! Write! Write!!
If you've read this and you don't have a purple bar you MUST go and write 10% of your remaining word count. That might be 100 words it might be 1000 words. Now GO!!
Woo hoo!

Keep going? There are still a few hours to go and not all is lost. The last bit can go very fast, especially with adrenalin, coffee or any other caffeinated substance.
I am here cheering everyone on who is still to finish.
It will be good to see more purple bars when I check in later.

Oh Gaye, you're embarassing me. Oh, okay, thanks.
Hmm yes, maybe I do suit purple. Not as much as you though.
And good luck to anyone still out there typing. There has been a few of us cross the line at this late hour before so keep going and throw everything you've got at your word count.
