Not Janey. As of 10:30 pm, Pacific Standard Time I have a total of 37,530 words. In 90 minutes I would have to write 12,470 words to meet the goal. Unfortunately, I have to get up at the butt-crack of dawn to go to work. But that’s okay. I may not be a winner of the official NaNoWriMo, but Charlie? She definitely is a winner! And her story is almost complete!!
Wahoo!
And now I need to get my happy little behind into bed.

Congratulations. And a big pat on the back from Uncle Bardie. You deserve it. You have done a great job. Just make sure you leave enough time to finish the novel.

Thanks Don. I have no intention of quitting now. Charlie will indeed get to see her story completed. And then I’m looking forward to setting it aside for some time before I jump into the editing process. It’s going to need a LOT of editing. 🙂

Once you set it aside for a while before editing, try book # 2 of the series. That way you don’t lose your momentum.

Good idea Don, thanks. I think there might be a series here; that’s how I saw it way back when I first tried to write it. We’ll have to see how this one ends. I know how I want it to end. I’m hoping the characters are in agreement! 😀

Those pesky characters can be a real pain as I know.

Thanks! Every now and then I think about fan fiction. I’m not sure why it doesn’t pique my interest more. Maybe if I read more of it I’d become more interested in writing it? I don’t know. My “to read” list is so flippin’ long already I don’t know when I would have time add more stuff. But I know a lot of folks like fan fiction; maybe I’ll have to work some of that in.

i’ve been thinking about it too, though i don’t know much about it. it seems like a way to have fun and reach an audience with a certain amount of interest. well if you want to try and work some of that in together let’s talk more about it later.

What a good idea; let me ponder on that while I try to get Charlie’s tale brought to an end. 🙂
