NaNo day 3

Today was a lazy day. After writing until 1:30 am yesterday, and then goofing around until about 4, I was TIRED. I did nothing all day. And then I napped.

I finally got the baby to bed at 10pm (cause she napped too), and started writing around 11 (yup, even more internet messing around before I finally shut off Chrome!). I got up to 9000-ish words by midnight (I remembered to stop and input my word count at 11:55!) and then hit 11,094 a little after 1am. At that point, I suddenly felt tired and decided to stop (of course, who's been up for yet another hour since then? Oh, that would be stupid. I mean, me.)

Anyway, here's my little progress bar thinger...


11094 / 50000 words. 22% done!

22% Yay me!! Almost a quarter!

I'm really liking my story. And I'm definitely less than a quarter of the way into my plot (plus I know I need to add more detail and dialogue to what I've already written), so there's not really any worry about me running out of story to write. Feeling good. Yup, feeling good.

Oh, what's that? You want a line from what I wrote today? Hmm....

For the first time, Taylor wanted to wake up from the dream. She closed her eyes and tried to force the princess to drift off to sleep, but it didn't work. She just continued to stare out of the window.
