 From NaNo-Mail conversation Show some love for Alice. Back-up your own novel! Is there anything we can do? >.< Don't know if she lost the novel or just the days ... but it's still pretty fucked up!

I was at 2,094 words per day average ... and then we had that visit and the RPG >.< Seems that I don't get the chance of a nice buffer this year! Hopefully the weekend can bring that nice buffer back. I'm hoping the same thing.  |

Oh, man, that's the worst. So hard to recreate what has been written and lost. Hopefully it was just the two days because that's bad enough. Heart goes out to Alice. |

*hugs*
It chose a perfect time to screw up on me. It 'might' get seen to on Monday. Though it might decide it's beyond compare this time.
I found some of the first day's stuff, which wasn't much. Basically just opened it in wordpad (eventually found) and wrote *Missing Text* and carried on. I don't care. If I get it back great if I don't I'm screwed.
With a bit of wishful thinking I'll be able to find some time to write more that the 50k so....
I don't know whats more annoying. The fact that I cant remember what was said in the conversation I now need to refer back to or the fact that I don't have a word counter.... or it might even be the fact that the keys on the keyboard of this old junk work in a completely different way... @asnd@ he said... Gah!
This month just isn't going well for me >.< Already

Anyone who tried to "Buddy" me and couldn't because of that might be able to now.

Right, a thousand words in a single hour. I'm really happy with that. Finished an entire chapter in just one and a half days.
I'll hopefully hit 2,000 words again today. In fact if I can keep up 2,000 words a day then I could have the entire book finished by around the 20th!
Now I'll just have to hope that there won't be too many distractions.

3,350 in two days. Exactly where I need to be .... if I wasn't already two days behind.

Hmm, not sure I'm going to get this done on time. By no means am I quitting, but I think I'm not going to worry about the time limit.

Sitting at one of the local meets... suceeding in 449 words in an hour and a half. Distraction central!

Sitting at one of the local meets... suceeding in 449 words in an hour and a half. Distraction central! Huzzah! :] Just going to start my daily lot now. Been shopping this morning and to a local farmers market and watched Idiot Abroad and did pancakes and put the slow cooker on for another beef stew >.> Think that is just about every which way I could procrastinate out of the way. Oh, and instead of working on my word-count last night I watched about four episodes of Farscape >.> The last 2 in the first series and first 2 in the second. Been doing marathons of them. Might be persauded later into getting onto Skype for an on-line write thing :] |

You're heading into awesome territory. The middle two seasons are the best. Lots of action and weirdness. And you're only a few episodes away from meeting Harvey. |

Got some writing done yesterday.
Changed directions after about 1500 words into my original project and opted to focus on another idea I've been brewing for a while. Did about 4000 words in the new direction and it may become a novel after all. probably gonna have to fatten it up with adjectives though.
