Good luck! You can do it! ♥!

I'm at 22000, which isn't so bad, but i DON'T KNOW WHERE I'M GOING WITH IT. ;_; TEH NANO, IT IS EATING MY BRAINZ.

[caitlin_chan]

Thanks! You can do it too!

NaNo is eating your brain? "Cannot brain, have the NaNo!"

Were you the person I ran into somewhere during a NaNo discussion who said they wanted to read my novel? Or was that someone else? *has a terrible memory*

Teehee. ^_^

*squees* Yay for virtual caffeine!

How many words did you say it was?

Can't wait to read... Should be wonderful.

[caitlin_chan]

Well, the total word count that you're supposed to hit for the month is 50,000, which means the ideal count per day is 1667.

In other words, I now have to write 2092 words per day, on average, to finish on time.

I'm glad you're looking forward to it, though. ^_^

[atom0001]

About how many pages would 50,000 words be?

Why wouldn't I? You're a great writer. That's how met!

[caitlin_chan]

I think that 50K is around a 175 pages in paperback pocket book size.

^_^ Just so you're warned, though, I've already paired Shikamaru and Chouji, and I'm going to pair Naruto and Gaara, and Lee and Neji. I pprobably won't have anything past a PG-ish rating, though, as far as sex goes, and if I do it will have warnings galore. ^^

Good luck! Feel the power, and whatnot!

You've only got 8k to catch up on, and there's two weeks left - you can still make it with a little luck. just don't be afraid to pad it out, I guess.

[caitlin_chan]

Oh, I've been padding for ages. ^^;;

My new daily average to meet is 2092.

Oh gods. XD
