Nanowrimo! 50234 Words!
Thank God it's finally over! The book is not done, although B and M are pushing me to "get it done this weekend". Proof that you can do something, if you have the proper motivation. Time for a nap!

NaNoWriMo Homestretch!
Oh my Gosh! My fingers are killing me! But I am in the home stretch of NaNoWriMo. 41,729 words down, 8,271 to go! I guess that the double teaming of M and B is paying off, have no choice but to finish now or must endure the wrath of my family, especially the teenager. He swears that he's been neglected the entire month of November, he doesn't look any worse for wear! Onward and upward!

Nanowrimo - Crunch Time!
Just logged in to NANOWRIMO, this is the last week - thank God!!! I have 37,057 words, 12943 to go. I will be so glad when this is done! I can nearly see the end, and Bren and Marq are going to make sure I get there, even if they have to drag my limp incoherent body over the virtual finish line. Thanks you two! You know I luv ya!

Half Way There!
Well, the push is on. I am a little more than half way there as far as my word count goes, but I am hardly happy with the story, really trying to resist the urge to go back and edit, desperately trying not to get caught up in that yet. 26,268 words down, 23,732 to go!

NANOWRIMO!
Nanowrimo is driving me crazy! I'm starting to think that this is my name, I'm sure that it will pass as soon as November 30 comes and goes. But I digress. NANOWRIMO - the torture that I willingly set myself up for is a month - a SHORT month, during which I "promise" that I will write an entire 50,000 word novel in 30 days. 30 days of grueling, pulling of hair and gnashing of teeth. What in the world was I thinking? But really, so far it goes - I can't say GREAT - but it goes in spurts and starts. I started out strong but this is where the voices of doubt show up and say "what is this crap!" Fortunate for me, what I write during these 30 days of h*** doesn't have to be perfect, it just has to be on paper! That's what December is for, the Great Edit Fest. To keep me going I have developed a little pep squad of my own, my sisters, my nieces and my good friend H. These people will keep me on the straight and narrow, cracking that whip, so to speak. Today's the 11th already? 19 days to go!
