I JUST PASSED THE 25K+ LIMIT! *DOES A DANCE*

My intention was to write exactly to 25k, but then that scene just really took hold of me and I had to finish it -especially as one of my characters took a sudden twist I hadn't quite expected. But, so, yeah, with four chapters and intervals written, and already one scene into chapter five, I've passed the 25k limit!

Just reached it today. It was my goal, even though it took me above average of what I normally write per day this November. Yay!

I FINALLY got to 25K. For some reason, getting from 20K to 25K seemed very hard. I hope I can conquer 30K soon!

I know the feeling -getting from 20k to 25k was pretty hard. However, getting to 30k is now proving even more difficult. Though I think that's mostly because I'm stuck on how to write this one scene.

Congrats to everyone!

25,000 WORDS!!! 26.5 ACTUALLY, but 25k was my goal and I still don't hate what I've written! It's terrible, certainly, and needs a lot of work, but it's far from hopeless.

25,670, to be precise.

I've managed 5000 words a day so far, and I think I'm going to keep up that pace for a finish on Nov. 10.

:D! 25, my friend, is my friend! X3

I'm so happy to be here, considering earlier today I was weeping with frustration and hatred. I /hate/ that I get week2 syndrome without EVER having week1 syndrome. *FACEPALM* XD But week3 is a wonderful place, and technically that's where we are as far as our words go. So.... :) Hello, week3 two weeks early.

And congrats to all of the rest of you, and shove over, save some pie for me! ^^!!!

Crossed the 25k mark which I have swiftly learned does not equal half way at all. It just feels good to be here.

I'm also at the half way there but not half way done point. I didn't intend the story to go much beyond 50k but it seems to have other ideas about how long it will take me to tell it.

It's okay-- I'm writing about Helen of Troy, just hit 30K, and Paris hasn't even entered the picture yet. Just keep writing, and your plot will catch up eventually! :)

Another line crossed today, I'm so happy!
And at the same time, not so-so happy, as I feel a bit stuck at this point. I'd love to be able to say that today, I've written 26k or so. But 25k will do the trick just as well, I guess.
Yay.
