Kitchen Stadium Battle, Secret Ingredient Nanowrimo

[kaitou]

Nanowrimo is OVER! And I skidded into the finish line with something like 50,100. I say something like, because I never did get it all typed and had to upload a dummy file to the site. It got to the point where I could either write, or type, and the writing had to win. It makes the whole thing a little unsettling since I don't know exactly what my word count is. But I think I'm pretty safe in saying I reached 50K. My estimates are usually within 60 words of the actual count, and I didn't count any pages that didn't go all the way to the last line. So that buffer should be good.

And I actually wrapped up the story as well. Go me!

In celebration this year I bought myself a gps, so I will no longer be afraid to go to the mall up in Lima. (it's all back country roads to get there, and I got horribly, horribly lost the last time I tried)

Congratulations, Ann! I went unplugged one year and I definitely know that uneasiness. Just glad you're writing!

And Congratulations to you too! Can't hurt to have Chuck Norris as your cheerleader.

I always do mine longhand, I just can't 'write' any other way. If I sit on a computer and write, I will end up on wikipedia. If I disable my internet, I'll end up on minesweeper. But usually I have time to type it once I get home in the evenings. This is the first year I didn't have it typed after longhand.
