Not that it matters any more...

Not that I am caring about word count goals for "The Plan" any more - it's not for a challenge, so I am writing at my leisure, and intending to edit even more so - but I have picked up the threads of the novel and am plugging on with it.

75,173 / 140,000 (53.7%)

So I'm not sure what the final "first draft word count" will turn out to be, but 140k seems reasonable given that I wrote almost 70k on Part One. I have quite a lot of plot still to get through and am revelling in the fact that I can take my time now to get through it. Wahoo!

ETA:

78,257 / 140,000 (55.9%)

I am impressed with my ouput for today!

I am also trying to figure out which challenges I can take part in next year. I don't want to overload myself, so my desire, which is "all of them!", is going to have to be moderated by common sense. Especially since I am running a challenge next year.

So I'm saying right now, please don't be offended if I don't take part in your challenge next year! I love challenges, but probably can't do everything, at least not if I want to have a week or two next year to devote to my own projects...
