NaNoWriMo - National Novel Writing Month

[Diamond]

I definitely won't finish, but I'm proud of myself nonetheless. This has been a good experience and a good motivator. And good job to the rest of you!

Congratulations A_Girl_Has_No_Name!

You must be feeling tremendously proud of your lady, Joel

Tilt... Diamond... Keep it up! Well done everyone

I'm afraid I gave up long ago, but there's always next year

Thanks Mouse !

Yes, she's quite happy ! She is close to finish her story, probably in the next days. I've read 9 chapters (the story holds in 11 chapter and an epilogue) and I find it quite good...

It changes because usually she writes a chapter and make corrections just after, so I squally reads a almost finished story. But with Nanowrimo, n corrections.. so the story is a draft, but still pleasant to read !

She’s still trying to understand how the « month of correction « (?) works... if you have indications, we would be glad to read about it

Congrats to rdanhenry on winning as well and I can see Diamond has passed 30000 words now.
I have just passed 20k so a bit more to go in these last few days. I'm skeptical but haven't given up hope yet. At least I'm close to winning that bottle of wine in the bet with my friend of getting first to 25k

Mouse - yep, there is always next year

Congrats Rdan! And Jo's girl... wow. Impressive.

Yeah, any time now, I can just write "Then, rocks fell on them and they died." and call it done and relax as a NaNoWriMo 2017 Winner.

What I actually did to celebrate hitting 50,000 was order a couple of winner shirts for this year.

LOL, sounds like a great ending

and nice with the shirts - I saw they tried to get us to buy them beforehand and I didn't really think that would be good - you win, you buy

Loooong writing weekend brought me to exactly 30000 words as I set the last full stop

Thanks Diamond ! I'll let her know !

Actually she finished the story with 55’545 words, and now she's adding some « flesh and muscles » to some parts of the story. She was really surprised and happy to finish the challenge, so it's all good for her.
Here, in the French part of Nanowrimo, they made a proposition : each one who's finished with his or her story sends it to another one (who sends his or her back) so they read and make critics and comments to each other.
I think she'll try that to have another look than men on her story..
Is it he same in the other countries ?

She liked your last words very much !
