Okay, so...

...after this morning's pep talk, is anyone else finding themselves in the 'Go On Without Me' category? Anyone else for whom it was looking so good until November 1st, when life threw up an insane number of problems and reasons why you couldn't keep up with the wordcount?

I'm quite disappointed with the progress I've made, personally, given that it was my first NaNo and I know that next year is a no-no, but on the upside, I have had fun. I've got a whole load of new story ideas, and it's levered me out of the dry spell I was having through August-October. I'll probably carry on doing bits of the novel here and there, but I think that if I'm going to be realistic, I'm never going to get past the 25,000 mark, let alone the whole way.

Good luck to those of you still going!
