I have 1100 words roughly. Mines about the end of the world, and I'm basically winging it except that I know it ends with a death.
I miss 2010.

Don't worry about that yet; it's not available. The whole site is kind of fluctuating.

Well, if you divide 50,000 by 30, you get 1,667 words per day. And to keep with the schedule, you need to have 8,335 words by now. If you don't have that much, you're falling behind!

And there goes the 10,000 word milestone! Also, the maximum length of a post is 40,000 characters, otherwise I would have posted my novel here.

Edit: I was talking about mine, not hers. But both are still cool. ^_^

Aww, that's a shame. Usually I just roll with stuff like that, as if I'm just watching my fingers make a story.

15,000 words is a hard push. It's only 1800 more than where I'm at now, about two pages, but what to do with those two pages?

One more thing: Ramune in large quantities is heavy, and I can't drive! So if you win, you gotta come here to pick it up.
