Congrats!

I'm only at about 20K way below my projected target but I think in the end my story wanted to take time to grow instead of being rushed like it was.

Thanks!

Oh, I understand. There are some parts in my story, I'm not sure about. I don't like how some of it is worded or even communicated, but I'll take that up with my inner editor later. 20K words is an awesome start and you accomplished a lot.

Thanks so much. It's been fun.

It was very nice, thank you. It turned out better than I thought it would.

You too. I'm looking forward to tomorrow. :)

Further proof as to why you win so much my twin. Further proof. Yep that's all. I can read the story now? I need an icon where John Connor throws his hands up and it says "I WIN!"

*grins* Soon. It's not done and I'm having a really hard time with this scene I'm working on. It's almost like - yay, I know I won so pthh on the rest of the story. It's feeling really forced and I hate that.

Yay for John Connor. He always wins! :D

YAY for soon. I'm about to start working on my story some more. Yay for you winning in all and I totally know what you mean. I hate when you're forcing something out and it just comes out wrong.

Forced writing is the worst. I usually end up axing it because it is unsalvagable, choppy, and makes no sense. I'm thinking of making a Part 3, jumping forward a few months and having a little reunion with my characters. Eh. I don't know.

Whoot. Connors ftw.

Congratulations! I didn't see what my final Nano count was according to the site versus Word, but I know it was off about a hundred (Nano site counted more) when I checked in the test upload.

I'm glad you had a Happy Thanksgiving! I hope you have a great rest of the weekend as well!

Thanks!

I've seen others on the boards mentioning the Nano site has different counts. Most are higher, but someone's was 1 short. *gasps*

Enjoy the rest of your weekend too.

65,203 words.

This is me, emerald-green with envy. Yes, I'm still having trouble with the Mag7/BATB/AW fic.

Put the lights on the bushes. Then it snows over them, and looks really cool.

:D I'm happy my 65K. It's the words I wrote yesterday that I'm not happy with and think I'm going to dump. I'll think of a different ending. LOL

Definitely. I love snow-covered lights. Very pretty.
