I'm almost there, wordcount wise! But my story is far, far from complete. I want to finish it, so I won't consider myself to have 'won' until I do.

Unfortunately, I think I'm not even halfway to the end. >_>;;

I've definitely slowed down lately, but still on track overall. We got some bad news about Mr Sushi's job that means we'll probably be moving somewhere tiny and very far north in January, with absolutely no warning, so that's been a bit distracting this weekend. If I really get going, though, I hope I can finish before the end of the week.

Congrats on hitting 50k Britain! *tosses confetti* Good luck with finishing the rest of your story! Think you can complete it before this month is out?

Congrats on 50k Britain! If your story's only half done, well, you've got almost half the month left? Good luck finishing!

I broke 10k, finally. At this point, my goal is 25k by the end of the month.

Wah, thank you <3 Yes, I think I will finish...I hope. It's very solid in my head and I truly enjoy writing it, so whenever I sit down the words just FLOW. XD

10k IS amazing. As the site says, at 10k you've written more than most people EVER will on a work of fiction. That's awesome!!

'grats Britain! 20k in, the Otherkin/Multikin war was over, and I'd written the aftermath, and the novel was completed. I've gone back to tease out more fluff but I'm stuck at 31,502. A major breakthrough looking at my past record (barring 2002, which I won, but didn't validate), but would be terrible in terms of word count.

I'm counting on a cryptic text message "Thanks, babe", from a guy, whom I've a slight acquaintance with, to furnish me with a further 18,498 words, as I allow Sophia to rant in my stead, disapprove, misunderstand Michael, and fall wildly in love with the opposite in the war.

Word Count: 51051

Whew. That was an adventure, for sure. I'll be sending my record to myself so I can get it officially verified when the time comes, but. That was quite a wild ride.

*flops on pile of words* So close...and yet so far away still... This current backstory keeps twiting and turning and can't seem to make up its mind where it's going... I guess this is what I get for writing about a brand new Sam who's never been RPed...even if I'm not really writing about her yet. Just her parents. Ah well.

*waves flag of encouragement* Let's keep writing! And look at that impressive word count Britain has wracked up... Wow.

I saw people with 50k words in the first week, Kendarath. YOU CAN DO IT.

*hugs Ori* I'm not doooooone yet. *whine* And this weekend went awesome, but I just realized how close we are to the end and I have a lot still to do. T_T

Good luck to everyone who's getting down to the home stretch!

I need to log into NaNo and update my word count shortly. I found it too distracting and just focused on actually*writing*! I hit 40k last night :) I'm pretty sure I can power out 10k in less than a week, *nodnod*
