Sure, why not, :10? Last words sprint I can do, though.

Yay! I got 330 and I'm happy with that. What I'm not happy with is the fact that halfway through my writing last night my handwriting suddenly got really bad and hasn't yet recovered.

Aw. Maybe the 20000+ words you've been writing are finally catching up with you. (My handwriting gradually becomes a sort of scrawl the more I write.) If your hand doesn't hurt, though, I guess it's not too bad as long as you can still read your own handwriting. Hopefully you can get back to your normal handwriting soon.

I've written exactly 19 words today. I should probably do something about that.

But my hand doesn't hurt and I can hardly read my writing.

Hey guys. Just calling to say I'm going to "give up". I'll still be writing, but as it is with exams coming up, winter coming down and my mental state to worry about, I just don't think the 4000+ words I need a day to finish on time is worth it. Don't be sad! I've already written ~20 000 words: more than I've ever written before, and I've learned so much. I count this as a personal victory, and hope I will be able to properly finish the story some day soon, if not necessarily in November. Good luck to all of you!

Grrr. I was so happy - maybe I would win! I was in time!

Then our physics teacher thought it a good idea to give us 67 problems for tomorrow. Yayy. So much free time to write -_-

Ow, wrist problems and unneccessary homework both are mean. I won't be able to write until late, too - I have to change to the winter tyres, buy food and cook. Sometimes I hate being an "adult".  :-\

ThisCat, if you want to finish your story later with some writing companionship, just tell - I already have some ideas about what I want to write next.

So, I decided to let go of Physics at 21:00, then set down to write a quarter of an hour later. Maybe I would write at least something. I joined Twitter just to do NaNoWordSprints. I wrote 1k in half an hour. 700 in twenty mins, then more and more and more, until my sister made me notice that I should be sleeping. "Just another hundred words, I'm so darn close!".

Wrote 2500 words today  ;D And somehow... All of it, all of it is legends. Worldbuilding. No plot brought forward today at all. Just made up legends as I went, and I have to confess that I'm quite proud of some of them. Plus, it counts towards my word count, which is great. Only 1000 words behind the pretty line I should ideally reach!

PS: ThisCat and Fen Shen, I shall join you. I, too, have lots to work on.

I'm out. Though I should count the words from the playbypost really.

I will finnish afterwards I think. Colleague of mine has a lung infection and I have to take her lessons. Instead of writing what happened in the past I design lessons for the future at the moment. Wih you all good luck!

Aw, come on, Nimphy, you have the highest word-count out of all of us! :P *tries to be inspiring*

I'm holding out hope that I'll somehow be able to write ~3500 words a day, but realistically I won't be able to devote any more time than I currently have been to writing. We'll see.

I'm not going to give up, are you kidding me?! Not when I'm so close! I Would just join them in writing more stories!
