20,000 words

As of tonight (or should I say this morning), NaNoWriMo participants around the world have written 1,251,762,334 words. Which is kind of mind boggling. There are at least 3 people in Fort Collins who have already finished their 50,000 words, including one guy who did it all in the first week. As for me, after a quick start the first week, the second week gave way to work and kids, but I tried to make up for it Saturday and managed to get to 20, 443 words. Some of which I like. A few of which strung together made me laugh and others which made me cry. I guess that means I love my characters (some of them) and hate some others (in a good way, of course). Not quite entirely on schedule for success in November, but 20,443 words closer to getting this story out of my head than I would have been if I hadn't started. And that's pretty cool.
