Me!
My 23,000th word is "under."
Not sure if that's a sign of anything, but whatever.

I'm averaging 1000 words in less than an hour. That's good. The coffee is working.

Ooh, hello 23k. Hopefully 25k will be here by the end of the day.

Well, you are about to start the greatest improvisation of all. With no script. No idea what's going to happen, often with people and places you have never seen before. And you are not in control. So say "yes".

23K! I pushed myself a little further than usual today, just so that I could reach 25K tomorrow working at my normal pace. (About 2300 a day.)

23,000th word: "he". Blegh, how boring,.

As for 50 K by the 15th---good luck with that, I admire your drive. But I also know I can't keep up that pace. I'll be happy to finish by the 19th or 20th.

Squeaked into it last night before bed. I had originally wanted to be at 24K before going to sleep, but I decided rest was more important.

23,626. I was aiming for Saturday's count of 23,333 and passed that easily in a word war. I thought I'd aim for 24K before bed, but my wrist is complaining so I'm going to listen.

Well, I made it to 23k before midnight and while I'm sure I could make it to 24k in the remaining hour, I'm quitting for the night while I'm ahead and finishing up some much needed homework. :)
