Part the 1st: Hey, kids, it’s the 30th! Which means the end of NaNoWriMo 2013. Which means — let’s go to the word graph, Dave!
That’s the look of 51,466 words. YWriter says 51,058, but either way you cut it, it spells VICTORY:
And now, the other half of the exciting news.
Kay’s been doing NaNoWriMo (or the Young Writers Project) this year, too — but I haven’t been tracking her word count because she’s been a bit slowish in getting it to me because she was behind. She had a target of 10K words, but as of this afternoon, she was under 7,500.
She kicked it out. She kicked ass. She cranked out over 2,500 words and made them sing, and ended up well over 10K. Huzzah!
Which means, in sum, we have two, two, two times the victory banners for NaNoWriMo this year (esp. since they YWP is using the same stickers):
More NaNoWriMo summary in a bit — but for now, whew! And it’s time for a margarita (for me, at least)!
