I was writing slowly, but I still managed to write 530 words. Yay.  (You know the history lessons you're all writing? Now it's my turn...)

Slowly...530... I did 438. But that's ok. Leo sometimes did not react to my vocab requests but I would not have written far more anyways ;). Next round at :30?

Sounds excellent (and yeah, I'm really surprised, too)

494. Not bad. I tried to rush this time, and I wrote less. I'm starting to see a pattern here... Next one at :55?

505 but I will try to write less next time. Writing so fast gets my heart bumping.

:05 would be better ;)

Argh, I was eating lunch. Still got 417 words, though. I think whenever I try to write fast I immediately get stuck on a sentence composition that I don't like, but when I write normally I rarely go back and edit until later. Hmmm...

Okay then! If this was a real race we would be on par and this would be the "Final Match!" Fortunately this is not a race.

Hmmm, if I gain 500 this round there is only 500 to go til I hit the 15.000. Then I am only one days word count back. That is nice.

Argh, I couldn't write anything in the last two days (but hey, I got to see the Karate World Championships, that was awesome too). And I need to prepare for a job interview later. But I hope I will be able to join you on some write-in later this evening if there is another one.

But I DO have a little folder called "Stuff I shall steal".  ::) (Mostly of names and some nice lines I will tweak)

Ha, me too! It's like eight pages of the most ridiculous random thoughts. Here, some excerpts, for your amusement.

-The chicken is the bookend. Scratch that. Ha ha, chicken scratch.
-Bring orange guy back. "Aah! It's you again!" NOPE NOPE nope nope. We figured this aaalll out. :D
- I HOLD THE POWER OF LIFE AND DEATH!!! MWAHAHAHAHAHA! I CAN CRUSH THEM ALL WITH THE POWER IN MY KEYBOARD! AHAHAHAHAHAA!! *Rubs hands together and grins evilly*
-Absquatulation is a truly awesome word. I must use it sometime.
-Hey! Hey! Plot specifically for the Group by the Secondbadguy.
-Leave your conscience at the door

The majority of that is related to stuff other people wrote, if not exactly. And I've got seven pages of this stuff...but the best part is, that I know exactly what all of that means.

... 386. I definitely sense a pattern in here. From now on I shall attempt to write as slowly as possible.

Heh, my folder is a lot shorter, not exactly seven pages, but it does have quite a lot of "stuff I shall steal". And if you want to see something weird, I suggest you look at my first draft of the first draft (not a first draft di per se, but a first draft of the first draft) of some short stories I write. It makes no sense, yet I understand all of it.

400, so two write ins to go. But I could do with a little break :).


- I HOLD THE POWER OF LIFE AND DEATH!!! MWAHAHAHAHAHA! I CAN CRUSH THEM ALL WITH THE POWER IN MY KEYBOARD! AHAHAHAHAHAA!! *Rubs hands together and grins evilly*

Note to myself. Writing seems to be unhealthy on some subjects. Will exermine this further the next days ;).

Eh, 392. On the bright side I've finally started what could be termed an action scene.
