Word count: 30,010.

I had a single goal with my writing tonight, and that was to get to 30,000 before I went to bed. And I can sleep well now, but I achieved it! Yay!

It’s great looking at that word count and knowing that there is the distance to go is less than the distance that I’ve come so far! It seems achievable, which can’t be a good thing. Going by the average of 1667 words/day there is to do to get to 50,000 in 30 days, I’m only a day behind now, which should be fairly easy to catch up on the weekend. Though I may have Friday’s count to catch up on as well – I’m heading to see the Rocky Horror Show on Friday night with Maria, my sister and her friend, so writing won’t happen until late in the evening, if at all.

But having NaNoWriMo finish on a weekend this year is fantastic! It means that I can have one last ditch effort to get to 50,000 if I’m lagging. I’m definitely going to be selfish and shut the world away that weekend…
