I am a slow runner 3 days ago

I run so slowly, but at least I try. I have been blogging a lot – but not everyday – about running in the very slow lane. http://runningaground.wordpress.com/



Do NaNoWriMo
35,035 3 days ago

I think that’s the right word count; although I might actually be down 1,000 because I can’t remember if I updated the word count yesterday morning. But it’s all about quantity NOT quality.

I was hoping to finish by Thanksgiving, but I don’t know if it’s possible.

I am in the home stretch. Have to tie up some plot loose ends and have to kill off a character. Have to add one more big obstacle. Hmmm. I just have to keep writing.

I’m proud of me!
