Ready or Not, Here I Come

Well, here we are, t-8 hours until November 1. I'm beyond excited to begin this year's project. I've spent days mapping out my storyline, which is something I've never done before. It remains to be seen if this'll work to my advantage or not. But my characters have real names instead of MainFemale and Antagonist1 and my chapters have a basic structure. That's an accomplishment in itself.


I made the mistake of picking up a morning shift at work tomorrow though, which means no kickoff party tonight and no running start on my word count. In the past I've been able to crank out 3-5,000 words those first few hours. I'm a little nervous that I'll end up behind. I'm working every day for the next six; and thanks to hurricane Sandy, I'm anticipating those six days to be incredibly rough. 1,667 words a day. That's all I need. I can do that.


Good luck to all my fellow Nanoers out there. May the odds be ever in your favor ;)
