The scary thing is, with a bit under 2,000 words I'd reach my goal. Unfortunately I have distractions over the next few days, so it's not looking like I'll have the time, even if the motivation were to show up :P
have to write them all tonight :nods:

So, with just over 15 minutes until OberWin ends I've come to report my word count.
A few days ago, I was so very close to hitting my 10k total. I didn't exactly do 5k each month, but the overall goal stands.
I've been writing in patches the last two days, not really getting into a rhythum with anything, but I did begin seriously patching up a particular scene.
Anyway, long story short. Recounting the words I'd written for Lexie and Michala, I'm adding another 2,054 words to this winters total.
That takes my overall word count to 10,473. So for the first time ever, I made my word goal.
Now please excuse me while I go and break things in celebration 8)
[act]cheers[/act] Epic, Ari! Brilliant work :). Hope you left your computer intact amidst all that breakage so you can come share words with us tomorrow.
WOOT! [act]hi fives[/act]

Hello little abandoned thread. Seems it's that time of year again.
I wasn't planning on participating this summer, but on the off chance I get some time to sit down and write during the OberNo Summer period, I' better have a goal handy...(also, a 'd' button that functions correctly would be nice too, but I digress)... so, with that in mind, my goal is:
To add 1000 words to my 'Michala' story, 1000 to my 'Faction' story.
OR
Add 2000 words to only one of the two aforementioned stories.
Fingers crossed I get enough time to achieve this summers goal/s. :)
Welcome to the ranks of the OberNoWriSu writers, Ari! Good luck with your goals. :) We are on standby to offer prodding or cheesecake when needed.

First piece of writing I've done in....lud only knows how long, and I only manage 101 words. Feels a bit sad really, but considering I've felt no need to write anything whatsoever in months, any words (quality or no) are welcome at this point :)
Here, have some random words :P
"Werewolves aren't real." Rasa scoffed.
"Don't make it sound like a stupid question. I mean, I'm standing in the same room as a honest to god Djinn! It wouldn't surprise me at this point if you said there were Fairies living at the bottom of the garden."
"Why would they live at the bottom of the garden? They are quite happy in their own homes."
Michala's brain stuttered a moment.
"Fairies are real?"
"Of course."
"But werewolves are not?"
"Precisely."
Michala rolled her eyes at the Djinn.
"Great. Glad we cleared that up." She sighed and walked over to the table.
I honestly think I just needed some time with a smart a***d Djinn ;)
Any words count, of course, Ari!!!
I like the snippet! Interesting.. can't wait to see more. Keep it up!
Woo, welcome back to the world of words, Ari. Glad to get some more Rasa :D

Courtesy of todays meet, I have words! Not quite sure how many just yet. Once I transfer what I wrote onto my computer I will do a check and update.

Looking forward to reading them
It's so good to see words in your thread, Ari! And congrats on all of the words you wrote yesterday - hopefully it's inspired you to keep going whenever you can steal the time.
I love the random words you shared, too. There's some fantastic stuff going on in that conversation.
He is a smart-a**e, isn't he? Love your Djinn. Glad you got some words down yesterday.
Glad the meet worked its magic on you too, Ari. I certainly have missed hearing from your characters and what they have been up to :D

I transferred what I wrote on Saturday to my computer and worked out I penned about 1,240 words during our time in the Library.
On the back of that I'm thinking I might need to re-think my word goal for this summer. Surely I can hit and surpass 2000 in a little under two months, right?

Maybe I'll up it by another 3k. Make it a 5k total. Sounds do-able.
[act]crickets continue to chirrup. Possibly louder.[/act]
Pfft, of course you can, Ari. Just better get on it ;)
Spreadsheet updated :D. Nice job so far!
Excellent work, Ari! My rough estimate of your word count on Wednesday turned out to be almost spot-on.

Huzzah for raising your target word count, too! You can totally do it.

You can do it Ari. If your having issues, ask Hallina to take over for a few days. Can you imagine the conversations between her and Rasa? I love to see that

Bahaha! Deb, now I have a Djinn V Jedi showdown going on in my head. I just hope it doesn't come to a physical confrontation. My brain will probably be the first casualty of that war :P
