DEATHMARCH
Nov. 30th, 2008 09:46 amState of Stomping Out Sparks/Nano 08.
Total time spent writing: 8:30-12; 6:30-8:30 this morning.
Total wordcount: 35,000 words exactly! 15,000 more to go before 10pm (and 8 hour shift at work..., this is still going to be crazy tight *__*)
Words I need to write before leaving for work at 12:30: 6-8,000.
Amount of sleep: 5 & 1/2 hours. Took a half hour nap between 8:30 and 9am, and coming off hour long break as soon as I finish writing this
Teh Beverages: 1 2-Liter of Diet Pepsi, 1 liter of water, and a Grape Gatorade G-2.
Teh Fooding: 1 package of peanut butter cups (when I hit 30K last night), half of a digiorno supreme pizza. About half a slice every 2,000 words, in other words.
Favorite passage so far: Tie between when Terrie shifts into goatskin for the first time (the effect is creepier than I had intended XD) and when Terrie and Robin have an argument over Mrs. Priestly's cooking which manages to both make me laugh and have a few plot developments.
edit: busted out the wrist braces at 11:30. Gonna hit 40K in about 20 minutes. *___*
Really surprised writing isn't of suckitude. I'm not writing as fast as I could be, which I'm sure is helping. Though the writing is pretty raw, the creepiness I worked into Terrie's transformation is making me particularly gleeful. And there's an actual plot developing that wasn't there before, so I'm pretty happy :D. Yay novel! If I don't hate you after emergency 10K rush, good chance I'll still love you after the remaining 15K dash today <33. Catch you guys after work! ( And for anyone interested, the Crazy Playlist of Fast Typing Doom I've been listening to as I write like whoa: )
