Much deserved props

ok, i think it's time that some props went out for great people that i know

first, props to Wendy, the best Canadian person i write with... she's so talented and so funny, everyone should meet Wendy

and Nancy, she's the sweetest person on the planet... she's a total mom, but i love her because of it... moms are the best people on the planet... she's so creative, too... one day you'll pick between reading my books and reading Nancy's books

and Jeannie... how can anyone not love Jeannie?? she's one of the nicest people i'll ever meet, and another of the sweetest... *hugs for my Jeannie*

:0)

Day four: writing at a steady pace

okay, i'm starting to get a little tired from writing, but i guess it's normal... i think at this moment, i'm at 12,600 words, plus a little more... i don't remember off the top of my head... i got some writing done late last night, just because I wanted to stop at 12,000 before I headed off to bed, and i did at like, 1:30 this morning... so, i'm going to cheat and say that over three days, i've averaged about 4,000 words a day... which is pretty good, in the long run, when to get 50,000 words in 30 days, you should be averaging about 1,700 to 2,000 words a day

at least the whole thing ends at midnight local time, so i'll still be writing after a good chunk of the world has stopped... yay me (and no offence to everyone else)

Wednesday was basically just laying the beginning foundations and writing... Thursday was padding and adding more as I read over it and writing new stuff... Friday was more writing new stuff... who knows about today?... probably more new, maybe some reading over of the second part to prepare it for critiques by others

hmmm, what else can i talk about??

i'm thinking that the first 20 pages or so are done, and i'm not about to add more to them... i've let some people read the first part... Jeannie (love my Jeannie), Dani, and Nancy... i think that's all who've read it so far... Jeannie said she'd buy it when it came out, Dani said she was hooked and wants to know more, especially about one guy that was mentioned, and Nancy said she liked it... hopefully other people'll like it, too... i like it, i think it's interesting, and i know there's going to be lots of twists and surprises

i feel so evil saying that, but it's true... i guess that's all for now... enjoy the weekend, peoples... and happy writing to all the NaNoWriMo people... you're all going to write great things
