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*

Well if my progress this morning is any indication, I won't get a thing done in week 2! :) 86 words in a total of five hours. *shakes head* Oh man, I am so doomed!
Anyway, I am going to try and steal some of your enthusiasm to help keep me going. *sponges greedily* All I need is 49,914 more words by the end of November. That's all. :)
*pompoms you on*
