I’ve just updated my word count (3, 861 words) on my National Novel Writing Month website account dashboard, and my overall word count is now 26, 961 words, meaning I’m slightly more than halfway finished my novel–and this challenge.

Even at this point, I know there’s a lot of this book I’m going to have to rewrite to make it make sense, much less make it good–but this is the first draft, so I’ll cross that bridge when I get to it.

We’re barely halfway through November, but I’m more than halfway through my National Novel Writing Month entry. As always since I got started on this project, I’m excited to continue…but, right now, I need a break, so I’ll pick this up again tomorrow.
