I am 1200 words from finishing NaNo 2007 (aka I’m 97.6% done). The story might be done. Might go a few thousand over. I’m pretty happy with it, though like all first drafts it has some very wonky moments and discontinuities, but those can be fixed.
Apparently in my even-numbered years of doing NaNo I will be able to complete the challenge by not only writing 50,000 words in November, but finishing the story. Woot! Now if I could only figure out what the heck to do with them after they’ve been edited up. I’d really dearly love to submit something to magazines or contests next year. My problem is that I don’t write short stuff…I’m not very good at being concise when it comes to non-technical writing. Oh well. There’s a few ideas rattling around in my head that could conceivably be short…ish…

in the end it’s better to say too much
Than to never to say what you need to say again

Now it’s off to sleep, and one more day of the crazy insanity that is NaNoWriMo 2007.
