That&#8217;s an average of 1750 words a day. It&#8217;s been a good experience so far and its now that I&#8217;m starting to worry about the proofreading part. It takes long enough to proofread an essay or dissertation, let alone 50,000 words from a document such as this one. <\/p>\n<p>I did feel good about reaching those 30,000 words. The chapters have grown in length and I have experimented with dialogue. I have started to think about narrative in more detail and I know that there are a few things that I would do differently. <\/p>\n<p>There is one thing that surprises me. Whilst a lot of people are aiming to write for Nanowrimo most of them are slightly behind the word per day count. Some are really behind. I read that last year 15% of those that took up the challenge did not complete the task. I wonder what the percentage is this year, and how many have participated. <\/p>\n<p>We&#8217;ll see how it feels when I hit at least 50,000 words. How will I celebrate getting that far into writing a story? Not long left anyway. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><span class=\"span-reading-time rt-reading-time\" style=\"display: block;\"><span class=\"rt-label rt-prefix\">Reading Time: <\/span> <span class=\"rt-time\"> &lt; 1<\/span> <span class=\"rt-label rt-postfix\">minute<\/span><\/span>With just under two weeks of writing left for Nanowrimo I have reached over 31,000 words in that space of time.
