While I am running almost 1,000 words behind my personal schedule. I have completed 20,899 words as of tonight. Those of you who don't write may not know this. But when an editor or publishing house is looking at your submission one of the first things they tell you is to GET RID OF THE FLUFF. So it's very odd and disconcerning to through every word you can possibly think of onto a page for word counts sake.
Even more humorous to think that when NaNo is over, we will have to go back and chop our efforts all up to make them more acceptable as publishable products.
Sort of makes me feel like I'm digging a hole I will spend the next few months refilling. Oh well, it's giving me something to focus on right now. And really, how many people can say they wrote an entire book in a month. Of coarse, how many are crazy enough to want to?
