Yes! Day One!

So, today was Day One of Nanowrimo. I've "participated" before, but without much of a plan I basically just wrote character descriptions and set pieces till I got bored and gave up.

However, I'm talking about my goals for this year to keep myself accountable. So, here goes...

Getting to the end and "winning" is as simple as averaging 1,667 words per day. Today I wrote like crazy and got to that number in about 1.5 hours. So, not bad. I could probably do it in less if I had some ability to focus, but as it was I did about 500 words while waiting for Chris to get his hair trimmed at Great Clips (as an aside, ever got your hair cut at Great Clips? I'm surprised I got anything written), and then managed to clack out about 1500 more while watching the end of the Anaheim Ducks/Washington Capitals game at home. (What can I say? Temmu Selanne inspires me.)

So...the grand total for today? 2,600! Go, me! Just 29 days to go!
