NaNoWriMo Update
Nov. 13th, 2008 10:13 pmThursday 11/13/08. By today I'm supposed to have written about 21,600 words, I guess.
I've actually written about 11,000 words. Still behind, but that's around 4,000 words just today, so I'm doing my best to catch up.
That's really not the whole story, mind you. Because I'm working on an existing story I'm completing a lot of half-written and partial scenes. I've completed Chapters 16 and 17 (beta versions anyway) and I'm several scenes into chapter 18. If I run a word count on the 2 and 1/2 completed chapters that I have, it's actually over 17,000 words. That means about 6,000 words of that existed previously.
Still, not bad at all. ^_^ Chapter 18 is what happens on Friday of the first week at school, which means I finally get to use a scene I wrote AGES ago, the infamous "what school club will Ranma and Akane wind up joining" scene. Yay! And then it's on to Chapter 19, the big fight on Saturday! Woo!
I should probably try to publish chapter 16 at some point, since it's been so long since I put out chapter 15. But I don't know if I want to take the time during NaNoWriMo month to go over it and try to polish it up for publication. Eh, the month is almost half over already, it probably won't hurt to wait until December.
