Just a quick post because I know a couple of you wanted to know this as soon as possible: At around 4.30pm, today, I registered a word count of 51,021 words, which means I completed the Nanowrimo challenge with 1,021 words to spare. I am a Nanowrimo winner.
Thank you to those of you that have been asking after my progress, and a bigger thank you to those of you who have had to put up with me being absent and absent-minded for the last thirty days. Normal service will be resumed shortly, whatever that means.
I’m back!
And now I am going to go and sleep. For a week.
For those of you wondering where I might have been the last few weeks, I thought I’d just update you.
First off, I’ve been working very hard at work, and trying to focus on putting in an application for a job that would be quite a promotion, but that is well within my abilities. Don’t think that will work out, but finger’s crossed.
The other thing is that I’m doing nanowrimo this year, and although writing proper didn’t start on that till November 1st, I’ve been working up lots of notes and thinking very hard indeed about it.
These handy widgets show my progress so far:
Please send help.
I am also working on a forum for this website… thinking about ditching comments in favour of it, as I’ve seen that work quite nicely on other sites, and I tend to end up getting into conversations in the comments with the same people anyway, so a discussion board makes a certain amount of sense. But we shall see how that pans out.
