50,000 Words Complete
I proudly announce that I reached the 50,000 words I needed to become a “winner” over at NaNoWriMo. I must admit that when you are writing a story that means something to you, the words come easily. I had no problem this month with writing about 2,000 words a day (generally)…although I had a lot of other problems to contend with.
Although I’ve completed the 50,000 words, I haven’t finished the first draft. I’m hoping to have the first draft of the manuscript 100% complete by the end of next weekend. However, I won’t give myself an undercut if I don’t make that deadline. There are other priorities that I have to attend to - such as Christmas, the anthology, and personal things - so I’m going to be kind to myself if I don’t reach this goal.
I hope all the other NaNo participants are working hard and nearing their goal. Good luck.

Wow! That is impressive. I bet it feels good to be across the finish line. I imagine I will be writing up until the deadline. i also doubt my story will be complete at 50,000 words.
Congratulations, Karen! I was worried that “life” was going to get in the way of your finishing but you’ve done it anyway. Bravo!
Congratulations, Karen! Here’s a virtual toast for a job well done.
Great work Karen, sorry for the late wishes I’ve just been behind on everything. I wasn’t done at 50,000 either, just keep writing until your done and enjoy your success.
Thank you everyone for the best wishes and support. I do appreciate it.
Best of luck to those of you still “in the race”. I know you will all do the best you can.
