Ooh I forgot to let you know about my National Novel Writing Month progress.

I didn’t win. I didn’t reach 40,000, let alone 50,000.
Oddly it felt better than last year when I missed out by the tiny amount of 421 words. But it is 40k more words than if I didn’t participate, I suppose…
I worked out a couple of issues with the story. One of which involved the old stand by of index cards, several pens, and an expanse of dining table. After a few days off, I will get back to it. I don’t think it’s going to have a huge word count in any case, and that’s okay.
If the whole story fits, and it’s a good story, then it doesn’t matter how long it is. The days of precise page counts are gone.
