So, 738 words in on NaNo, not too bad for a lunchtime's work (I didn't start at midnight, despite the temptation – I need my sleep!). Lots of scene-setting. Generally, I don't bother with scene-setting, because in fanfic it's not so necessary – we already know who the people are, where they work, etc. It feels quite luxurious to be stretching out and occupying a page in this way.
More words this evening, so I'm pretty confident I'll hit my 1,700-words-per-day target – er, for the first day, anyhow. Really, that's not many words (she says, hopefully). I write more than that in a day, on a semi-regular basis. Not on one story, though. Time will tell if I can stay focused.
I'm hoping I'll actually have some semblance of a normal lj life, too, as I can't really write my story at work, but I can make and read posts – less concentration required. And I'm thinking of taking some time off in late November. I'm due some holiday, anyhow, and it's not like I have any other plans.
Yes, I am enthused right now – can you tell? I hear week 2 will be bad, though. *g*

Heehee, I like your icon. I need to make myself a... NO. Must not distract myself with thoughts of footling around with icons. That sort of thing somehow takes up hours of my time. Must WRITE!
:D
