Halfway through NaNoWriMo (Nat'l Novel Writing Month)! Trying to write a 50,000 word novel in 30 days. Keep reading for a quick update blog on my progress...

So far, I've written 16,812 words in 15 days. I have 33,188 words left! In order to make the 50,000 word goal, I now have to write 2213 words per day through Nov. 30th!

I haven't been blogging as much recently, but frankly, that's a GOOD thing because it means I'm writing. How is everyone doing so far with their NaNoWriMo adventures? I'd love to hear your progress.
