No cut for you. If you’re here, then you know I’m going to be talking about this!
First off, here’s the mad dash of writing I did tonight. Look at the times. Look at the word count. Look at the times between times (the one-minute intervals are so I could update my word count). Look at how little breaks I took. I subsisted on tea, one grilled cheese (thanks, Sky) and adrenaline (yay sympathetic nervous system responses).
They’re all 10-minute intervals except for one; I was in the middle of a good fight scene, and I didn’t want to stop.
6:45 PM TO 6:55 PM 45616 TO 45825 (+209) 6:56 PM TO 7:06 PM 45825 to 46049 (+224) 7:07 PM TO 7:17 PM 46049 to 46338 (+289) 7:18 PM TO 7:28 PM 46338 to 46602 (+264) 7:29 PM TO 7:39 PM 46602 to 46933 (+331) 7:40 PM TO 7:50 PM 46933 to 47251 (+318) 8:00 to 8:10 47251 to 47589 (+318) 8:11 to 8:21 47589 to 47814 (+225) 8:22 to 8:37 47814 to 48163 (+349) 8:38 to 8:48 48163 to 48381 (+218) 9:00 to 9:10 48381 to 48652 (+271) 9:11 to 9:21 48652 to 48845 (+193) 9:22 to 9:32 48845 to 49133 (+288) 9:33 to 9:43 49133 to 49403 (+270) 9:44 to 9:54 49403 to 49688 (+285) 9:55 to 10:05 49688 to 50051 (+363)
By the way? Writing a massive fight scene between three assassins while listening to the final boss theme for Trusty Bell/Eternal Sonata (which is a remix of Fredryck Chopin’s “Revolution”) is all sorts of massive, massive win.
Here is my word count per day, according to my stats on my NaNo Profile page.

Oh my God. It’s finally over. I can have my life back, and I can edit 10,000 words out of this thing.
