Crankily Cranking It Out

Oh my. I'm up to 42193 and I'm killing off a character for only the second time in my noveling life. It wasn't like I was attached to him or anything, and he's actually going quite quickly/painlessly.

I'm beginning to fear not finishing my story by the time I reach 50k. This has never happened to me and I find it disturbing. Mostly because I have no desire to continue writing after November 30. I just don't like the story well enough to go on, and that is putting it lightly.

I cannot WAIT to finish! This has been the longest NaNoWriMo of my life!

We've decided to have the TGIO party at my house again. This because we're having trouble finding a venue that can accommodate a crowd our size that also serves some sort of alcoholic beverage. The latter criteria is mine and mine alone. And that should tell you what kind of a month I've had.

I'm really looking forward to the party -- it's a very nice group of people. We'll celebrate the work we did, read novel excerpts, eat good food, and did I mention we get to drink?

It's coming up quickly, and the only thing between me and all that fun is a measly 7807 words.
