The Words: 2575 words total for the day.

I managed to hit my personal daily word count goal of 2500 today, despite not having all of the extra time to write in the afternoon like I thought I’d have. I had only managed to get 800 words by the time evening came on and thought I might just have to stop there.

Fortunately, I did end up with some more time to write and caught a 30-minute sprint on the @NaNoWordSprints Twitter feed (also known as a #1k30). That got me only a couple hundred words away from my goal, so I wrote for a couple more minutes before calling it a day.

I don’t expect to get many words tomorrow, but hopefully the amount of days left this month and the amount of story in my outline will line up okay.

The Story: I probably shouldn’t have put this storyline off for last, considering that the MC in it is so far out of my comfort zone. But I’m doing what I can, looking in at key parts of her life leading up to the events surrounding the big battle around which all 4 storylines are focused. I got all the way up to a key turning point in her life, and next will have to write about the consequences of that event.

Total word count: 67,190
