The far-less-glorious-than-last-time end to my NaNoWriMo experience

[heidicullinan]

As of this evening, I am officially sort of declaring my NaNoWriMo over. What the hell does that mean, you ask?

Well....

What it means is that I've hit 50k (twice!) and have a map, mental or literal for the rest of each novel, but neither one is a finished, now-let's-submit-to-betas draft like Double Blind was last year or even Nowhere Ranch was

The odds of me hitting The End are slim seeings as how I just started the final part yesterday and it probably has 20K+ to go. We'll see. I'm not going to stress about it, just keep on chugging away until the 30th. I don't know if I'll have the drive to finish it at a reasonable pace come December if I don't do it this way.

Hey, might not be final word of the final chapter but you succeeded, and that's something. Good for you! I can't wait to see the final product. :D

50k twice? Not shabby! Congrats!

[heidicullinan]

Thank you. I just...wanted a tidy draft. Sigh.

I need to come to Minnesota. Or you need to come to Ames.

Definitely! Although not in the ice/snowstorm they're predicting now. :)

[heidicullinan]

Yeah. Let's skip that.

Yay!

Still hopeful I'll get to the end, but I'm having a love-hate relationship with this book right now.
