This week’s word count ended exactly where I needed it to in order to ensure a reasonable chance at “winning” this year. The Virtual Write-In helped a lot and accomplished its goal for me: putting my word count “above the line” going to back into a work week for the final five days.

The story progresses. Well … the perhaps the word count does, but I’m not so sure about the plot. I have written myself into kind of a hole. So, far almost nothing has taken place that harkens back to my original story idea. (Yeah, don’t read the summary on my NaNoWriMo page; it is not nearly that story — at least not yet.

One more week to go!
