Well, I finally hit 20k:

20,721 / 20,000
(103.6%)


So that's awesome.

On the other hand, this is the bar for (a very conservative estimate of) the actual wordcount I expect this story (book!) to shake out to.

That's... less awesome.

And I'm not sure I've actually written 25% of the story.

Ah, well. [keeps going]

I've been writing my [livejournal.com profile] bittybang for 4 days and I've already got more than 10,000 words.

I'm really glad, though, that I've got a long, long time before the first draft is due. This is mostly because - even though I'm halfway to the minimum word count - this story is, at 10k, barely even started. I think this is a novel, people. A JuC novel - [livejournal.com profile] rikes, what has your challenge done to me?!

People write 50k in a month for NaNo, right? So I can write the remaining 50k-or-more for this in 2 months? Do you think?

Christ, what have I got myself into.

ETA: 12k! Chapter 2 done, Chapter 3 started, and man, I need to figure out what my boys are gonna do next.
