Camp Nano - Day 19

Today`s word count: 2,531

Today was tough writing. I got about 136 words written before I was tired (I had to pack things for our weekend trip to the US!) and then I went and had about a two hour nap. I woke up, and wrote about 700 words. And on the trip down in the car, thanks to my trusty handy Alphasmart 3000 I was able to finish my word count - even once the light was gone, I continued to type even though I couldn`t see what I was typing (so i`m sure there`s going to be a few spelling mistakes!). Just as we were entering Seattle I hit my over 2,500 words! whoo!

And tomorrow I`ll be over 60k - which leaves me only 20k to try and wrap up my story. Eeek! Well, of course I can write more than just 80k if I need to...but my in-laws are coming to stay and they arrive on the 31st so I`d like to have it all done and finished before then - because I think it`d be rude to write my story when we have guests. Right. That`s supposed to be a question mark after the word `right` but my keyboard is messed up again and is using alternate symbols (hence the strange apostrophes) and I can`t remember how to fix it at the moment!

Anyways off to bed now for me since its 12:30 in the morning and we`re heading off early to go to the Oregon coast! (at the moment we`re in Woodland, Washington staying overnight).

Tomorrow  - onto the over 60,000 words!

Total word count: 58,036
