Hello! My name is Tim aka NewMexicoKid, one of three co-Municipal Liaisons for the United States::Illinois::Naperville region. In honor of your fine MLs, I'd like to offer you a friendly word count graph (click through the image to be taken to a page with more details).
Instructions
Please reply to this post if you want to be included in the graph. The scanposts tool automatically updates the graphs about once an hour, so be patient in waiting to be added.
As an extra fun point, please include the last (family-friendly!) dramatic paragraph from your novel-in-progress.
Enjoy!
--Tim
P.S. Note: it will take about an hour after my initial posting for the graph to appear above, so if you don't see one up there, don't worry. :-)

okay, then... Hi!
And my last paragraph: I wouldn’t think about that. I was not going to think about that. Lia was dead now, and I had left just as she thought I should, and hopefully Harold and Kata and Medi were good and right. Especially Medi.
lallalala...

That's quite a cool little tool there! And here's my last paragraph too... :D
“I’m so sorry mamma! I promised I would make you proud! But here I am, alone, in the slums and I’ve even lost my heart. I don’t know what to do without you. Without love in my life. What do I do?” As if to answer a light somewhere flickered on, it’s beam shooting directly through the window, landing upon a shovel that lay abandoned in the room. This caused her to chuckle. Her mum’s favourite catchphrase involved spades. ‘If life deals you a bad hand, then simply use the spades to hit back.’ (Advice that her mom took literally in the great Zombie uprising of the 50s, becoming known as Decapitating Delilah amongst her fans and enemies.))

Wow, thats really cool. thanks :D
and my last paragraph is
Eveyone nodded and we quickly set up a roata so everyone got some sleep. I stayed on first watch with Jace as everyone else went to sleep. I looked over to him and noticed that once again there was a slight redness to his face. I couldn't tell if it was the light from the fire, or if he was hot. It was there, thats all I knew.
not much, should have show you the one from earlier was nicer, lols.

I love little gizmos like this so would love to be included; hopefully a diagonal line like this is what i need to give me a perpetual kick up the backside. ^,^
Also, I don't know what my most recent paragraph is, as I'm at work. Something to do with hospitals and the MC's wife, I think...

Thanks for doing this for us Tim. :)
My last paragraph:
Zach dropped Myra off at the gate of her house without another word. His mind was too focused on other things. He couldn't think straight. It felt as though history was repeating itself and he couldn't let that happen. Had he spurred Myra on with all this talk of mutiny? Was that the reason that she had managed such a pivitol step without any help from them? Was the same thing that was happening with her was what happened with Sinead all those many years ago? He couldn't think. He couldn't let it happen again! It wasn't good and he had to stop it. He had to stop it now.

Me!
My last paragraph, if you count speech, is:
"Olive, you yourself have admitted that in your good periods you are a very sociable girl, but in your darker times, you are virtually a recluse. I know we have tried to implement more sociability into your schedule, but it has led to little improvement. I am of the opinion that you need a stronger support network, one in which you can have no embarrassment because their problems are like yours, and they can understand where you are coming from. I believe that you may find this beneficial, if you actually tried it. Of course, as your therapist I can insist you attend as part of your treatment-"

hi,
Yeah, can i join in on the fun too. Prety Please. I know i'm slow on the uptake, but i'm more than willing.
And my last papragraph:
'Jacob downed the last of his cider as Gabriel did the same, knowing that the evening was coming to an end. But what he learned was interesting stuff, and he would have to get Gabriel to talk about it more often. Especially if he could get him to talk about one of his own. Oh yes, now that would be good'
Not much of a give away or indeed dramatic,
Tim.

Can I be added? I don't think I'll post my last paragraph as it involves things that would warp my mind if I were to read it again.

Add me please!
Although I don't have my last paragraph to hand, I do recall it did involve expletives and therefore wouldn't qualify as family friendly.

Add me! Please?
“Huntress, I assure you all is proceeding as planned.” I said, hiding my terror, I was good at masking my emotions, years and years of practice helped. I just hoped the terror was irrational and Huntress would not punish her favourite pet. I mean how hungry could she be?
