I remember there being a Nano chat somewhere around here. Is that still around or did no-one make one for this year?

[Darkmere]

There's usually one on IRC for the group, and I've opened up the regional one I run before. There's been... issues... not with people from the forum but I don't want to publicly post. We've still been pretty dead but if  you want the info PM me.

I'm usually around from about 8 pm onward, GMT-6.

I am falling behind again... Ohnoooooooooooo... Didn't have any time to write yesterday (literally, insane day), just got home after a long and exhausting day, don't know if I have it in me to write anything... Must... Push... Onward... Push through the pain!!! 

[TD1]

You realise that saying "literally insane day" means you literally went insane for a day?

You missed the comma. The "literally" was referring to not having time to write, not to the day being insane.

[TD1]

Even with the comma, my interpretation stands. With me standing beside it!

Which institute did you use? St. Luke's is good, I've heard. Maybe Bedlam? Bit of a grim history, though, and I don't think it's in "business" any more.

[Sappho]

I've now finished Spirit of the Burger Fortress and Geriatric Wagon Siege.

This is so much fun.

[Darkmere]

Anyone still doing this? I just topped 47,500 words. Victory is in sight!

...

Please tell me someone is still doing this?

[Sappho]

I had to give up just past 25,000 words due to real-life problems. I'm proud I made it at least halfway - not bad for not having planned to do it at all. Keep going, though, you're nearly done! Wooooo!

[Twinwolf]

I'm around 32,000 words due to life getting in the way

Still going to try to finish tho

I finished today at just over 50000 words. I had a slow start like last year for about a week, then made it up by doing 2k per day until about Thanksgiving, where I was far ahead enough to finish.

Hey, Congrats!

I finished yesterday after being at least 3 days behind for the first two weeks. Finally gave up and started rapid-firing notes for every book idea I've got on the burner, but it got a win so I'm cool with it.

[Silverthrone]

Real life decidedly scuttled the whole endeavour. Which, of course, means that I did. I have some ten thousand odd words scattered in various chapters, although I did manage some write some eight thousand more, albeit in unrelated texts. In brief, quite the disaster.
We shall see. If I get another year, it might go better then. Or, I shall pretend January is November.

[TD1]

I shall pretend January is November.

That's pretty much what I'm going to do. Start of a new semester and the heat isn't on yet.

[Twinwolf]

I was really behind for most of the thing. On Day 27 I had 32,552
And then I just wrote
A lot
And just barely made it to 50,000 on time
