My story begins..
"So you sprawl in the muddy street not knowing which of a million shadows is the one you need..."
Well, I work on my own stuff at night so my first nights work is spread over 2 NaNo days.
According to them, it's 1,764 for day 1 & my new total currently for day 2 is 5,426 :-)
I'm not sure why, but a massive story just sort of fell out of my head and splattered all over the desktop, so all I've been having to do is try and catch the words and stuff them into the computer all night.
Hopefully it will keep on coming.
The draft I finish up with by the end of the month won't be the whole story and will definitely not be fit for sane humans to read, but I've actually got a cracking good story in there so I'm feeling really inspired.
Here's me at NaNo by the way.

If you add your user link I can add you to my buddy list and spy on you :-)
I've got to say, I wish I had one of those word counter banners on my own computer now.
They really are a powerful motivator.
ps sorry I took a while to reply, I've been busy practicing for the day I finally get to become an official tyrant and bossing someone around that much takes a lot of time. (My first employee)
