NaNoWriMo 2016: Whoops, Meant to Tell Y'all This

Yeah sorry for the radio silence. Again, it is all because of work. But I am happy to let y'all know that some BIG stuff is set to happen this month! One I'll keep as a surprise, the other I'll reveal now:

I'm doing NaNoWriMo again!

But instead of a brand-spankin'-new project, I am working on finishing not one but TWO unfinished WIPs. One is last year's NaNo winner and the other is our good friend Dolls (who yes, still remains unfinished... until now!). Right now I am over the estimated word count for Dolls (100K), but I still need to add some scenes, so I'm going into overtime.

Once that gets finished, I'll begin on Thing and continue on until it's all over (or November finishes out, whichever happens first).

I'll get back to regular updates. Until then, enjoy one of my favorite episodes of Ross's Game Dungeon:

Good Lord... owww

Okay, I reached the coveted 50k goal for my novel, but it ain't done yet...

50556 / 80000 words. 63% done!

In order to completely finish, I need to write about 4,300 words a day until the 30th. I could pull a large miracle on my free days and write more than that. Like today, for example.

If I succeed, I'm gonna give myself a nice reward. Like stuff from LUSH or something else... perhaps this book in glorious paperback? We shall see!

Would you believe I'm still not done?

Here is the latest word count...

121934 / 120000 words. 102% done!

I still need about 9000 more words in Part 4, then an additional 8000 for the epilogue, which will put this first draft at about 140,000 words.

...

Well damn. I wasn't expecting that.

*ahem* Lemme put it this way. There is no effing way the final product is gonna be longer than that.

Oh look, everybody, there goes a flying pig! I'm gonna so eat my words here!

Eff that noise, it's gonna be much longer when I redo it. Lord knows my stuff tends to do that. And that's not even counting a few scenes I forgot to add in earlier parts!

Yea! Ladies and gentlemen, this is gonna hurt!
