No, not quite that bad, I'm happy to say! I am a bit behind, but today's word count moved me considerably closer to being on target for making the 50,000 words by the end of November. Oh, for those of you who don't know, I'm a part of National Novel Writing Month (NaNoWriMo) for the first time. We try to write a 50,000-word rough draft FROM SCRATCH during the thirty days of this single month. I have almost 11,000 words now. The main thing keeping me going is the agony of having to admit defeat after telling all of you I'm doing this. Really. And that is part of the strategy. I can't quit because I'd have to face YOU. Therefore, I'll make it to 50,000 words, won't I? Yes, I'm determined.

You are brave! Perhaps next year I'll give this a try--but this year I decided trying NaBloPoMo was all I could handle.
Keep hitting those keys, I'm over here applauding your efforts.
Oh,yes, you WILL do it! I believe in you. And I am so, so, so impressed.
Keep it up baby!
