LOL I did the same thing! I thought I would be asleep by the time midnight rolled around, but I busted out 1080 words. I am 1/50th of the way there!

I didn't go to the kickoff either (too late, too much driving time, etc.), but I did stay up and crank out 466 words.

No kickoff for me as well, but a synopsis and 421 words are done and out there for all to see. Now off to bed, and back to the computer tomorrow!

I made it to the midnight kickoff. Good turn-out. I got out 1,300+ words of crap, but hey - the story is getting told for now.

Didn't make kickoff either (I work shift work...) But chunked out the first one, of 25 plotted way points.

Working title: Keru and the pirates

Didn't know there was a midnight kick-off because I didn't sign up until after midnight. This is my first year doing this!

At 1500 words right now and no working title! >.>

I did manage to make it to the midnight kick off and turned out 1100 words there, but the coffee didn't hit me until AFTER Frontier was closed. If only the jolt had set in sooner...

Either way, it's a good start. Now to write some more...

I went to the midnight kickoff, and managed about 1000 words before they kicked us out. Then I went to the daytime kickoff and chucked out another 2000 and some. So far I like where the story is going. But at this rate, I'll reach the point where I haven't outlined yet in no time!
Now time to do homework.

I'm already behind (609 words) and probably should have worked on it today, but....

it was a beautiful day and I hadn't hiked Mt. Taylor yet! So that's where I was instead of noveling.

Procrastination is settling in early! I'll be cranking out the words tomorrow.
