Was just looking at my lovely little graph on my personal Nano page and noticed as a region we had a big dip in production yesterday and so I ask....who slacked off yesterday???

However, I did notice were 56th overall in words for all regions and while we don't really have a chance to beat some of the big centers surely we can move up...so get writing already people or I'll go into my 'phong' rant. Trudge on people - trudge on our I'll leave you naked for eternity.

I think it's because so many people are sick. Writing when you don't feel good is HARD.
But hey, this is my first time trying this and my word count in almost 9000 and I plan to have it 10000 before this day is done.
Really I do!!

I'm one of those 'catch-up-in-the-last-stretch' kind of people. Don't worry, my final week will probably pump out ALOT more. =D

Lunch time - time to crank the Korn and write like something that is similar to some other thing related to it in some way.

I only managed to get in 1700 yesterday, then passed out. I also haven't been updating my wordcount, one sec.

As long as you want to tinker with it, nothing is fixed.

I'm slightly ahead of daily quota, but I haven't had a real writing binge yet, nor have I participated in a word war...so watch out! GJazz is bustin' loose this weekend! :D:D:D

I'm very slacktastic this year.

I'll catch up eventually.

It's my fault, I spent the day rewriting >.< For my penance, I will write 2000 words today!

While I don't have as many words as I'd like, I'm very proud to say that I've written everyday so far. This is already better than I've ever done before.

I was too busy to write the first 2 days but I am caught up now. I plan to write 1000 more words before bed. I will spend some of my day writing by hand so I will have to transcribe tomorrow which sucks. But hey, if I can do it, all the more power to me! Ha ha! Man, I can totally get paid by my day job to write... that's sweet. =D

Anyway, I think we should just worry about beating my hometown... which is Edmonton. Actually, my hometown is Athabasca but they're not on here, so Edmonton it is. Apparently they've written millions of words. *sigh*

I'll update my word count after my next 1000 words or just before I pass out.

Cheers!

I wrote about 1700 that day, but I've made up for it since with 11,000 words in two days! (Needless to say, my hands aren't working very well at the moment......)

I'm falling behind, I bent over weird Tuesday and I was in total back pain Wednesday. Thursday was a little better and managed to catch up some with 3k words, I'll try and catch up today, but I'll be handwriting most of it. I sure can't sit long, after half an hour my back is in such pain I feel like it's going to collapse. :(
