Surprising Myself... · 12:48am Jul 26th, 2015
So... It's no secret to my friends that it's EXTREMELY hard for me to write large amounts in short periods of time...
However, since the 9th of April, I have written 38,295 words for Witching Hour and Monkey Wrench. The only story that comes close to this word count is my Sailormoon fanfic, which has been in some form of writing for sixteen years... It's most recent iteration (v.3.75) has been in progress for seven and a half years.
So yeah... I think I'm allowed to be exceedingly pleased and pleasantly surprised at myself for writing so much. I know there are people who can crank out 10K in two days, but it's a chore for me to put out 4k in two weeks. The two times I've tackled NaNoWriMo, I have fallen drastically short of 50k, even short of my own (more realistic) goals (30k my first year, and then 15k my second... Though I didn't do as poorly with the 15k goal).
Anyways... I won't bother trying to add up the words in my note-files... but needless to say, ~38.3k is still really impressive for me.
So...
