#NaNoWriMo: The Final Tally

In this post I mentioned I started a story on November 1 though I wasn't writing any stories over 50,000 to actually participate in NaNoWriMo.  I actually ended up writing 5 novellas over the month, finishing the fifth one conveniently on November 30.  So how many words did that equal?

1.  Transformed Into a Goth Girl Too (24,350 words)

2.  Transformed Into a Pregnant Girl Too (25,950 words)

3.  Transformed for Christmas (17,600 words)

4.  Transformed Into a Schoolgirl Too (29,380 words)

5.  Transformed Into a Bimbo Too (19,075 words)

So the final word count for the month was:   116,355 words!  Which was more than double the goal.  Nailed it!

How many words did you get down in November?

If I Were Doing #NaNoWriMo I'd Be Almost Halfway There!

November is National Novel Writing Month or NaNoWriMo, where people try to write a novel of at least 50,000 words over the month.  Last year was the first time I ever did it officially.  I wrote the conclusion of the Girl Power trilogy, League of Evil that month.  It was much more than 50,000 words.

Fast forward to this year.  I'm not doing it this time around because the projects I'm working on are not going to be 50,000 words.  But if I were doing it, hey, I'd be almost halfway there! 

Conveniently I started my last project, Transformed Into a Goth Girl Too, on November 1 in Roswell, NM.  And I finished it Saturday in Scottsdale, AZ.  After editing it was 24,350 words, which is almost halfway!
Should be on sale later today or tomorrow!

So now I guess I need to make the next one 25,650 words so I'd be all the way done!  That would be like in baseball when a bunch of different pitchers combine to throw a no-hitter.

Anyway, are you doing NaNoWriMo?  How far along are you?  Or are you close to your other writing goals this month?
