Day Thirty - The End

I invite you all to read the end of Faceless. I must say, I’m pleased. And incredibly proud of myself for finishing. It ended at 80k, just like I thought it would. I didn’t try to end it at 80k; it just naturally did. I sat down today and did not ask myself to write to 80k. I asked myself to write until I finished the story. And it ended at 80k. Damn, I’m psychic.

Thank you all for reading and supporting me, if you did. I truly appreciate it. Now, let’s all wish me luck in aiming for publication!

Day Twenty-Eight

We near towards the end, with only an estimated 12,000 words until the end. At this rate, it might be even more, but as the plot begins to pick up it could be even less! Let’s pray for more! I realize that it slows down a bit in here. It’ll all seem more relevant and interesting later on, I promise.

Day Twenty-Six

Now, you may be wondering why I chose not to hit 60,000 today and instead remained at 59,500. The answer in simple: I reached a part in the writing where I’m better off brainstorming for a day to see what more I can come up with. because let’s face it: This part is interesting and could use some good thought.

Day Twenty-Five

Now that they’re accepting official winners at NaNoWriMo, I’ve been accepted! Here is my little image thingy:

I win.

On top of that, I’ve also replaced the icon in the links section to a winner’s icon.

On top on top of that, the title for the novel has been determined. Call it Faceless. And now, onward to finishing! A little less writing tonight since I have a headache and massive carsickness after coming home from seeing Borat, but… well, you win some days, you lose some days.

Day Twenty-Three

First of all, I would like to with every (American) reader a happy Thanksgiving, and that I hope your turkey was as good as ours was. Or the one you ate at a relative or friend’s house.

Oh, and if you thought I was going to write today after getting home at 9:40pm after eating all day, you’re out of your mind.

G’night, folks.

Day Twenty-Two

I just want to take a moment to say to myself: Happy 50,000! I worked hard in reaching it. Now all I have to do is reach my true goal of 80-100,000 words, which will be the real end of my novel. Right now I’m still in the middle to a bit past the middle.

Day Twenty-One

This passage has one of my favorite parts at the end. I’ve been waiting the entire story to write that part. It didn’t fit in as well as I’d hoped, but it’s still good. I still like it.
