Despite trying, I will only have perhaps 23000 by midnight. At 21007 right now. I'm sorry guys...but then again, my books are usually only about 45000 words at any rate. Into the meat of it and it is coming along really well, all things considered. Would help if I could make myself just spew words, but that is not how I write. I edit as I go. Which included a 10k delete as I realized one of my main characters was turning into a jerk and that would NOT work. So, zap, it was gone and I am far happier with the rewrite. Not the sort of thing one should do during Nano. Then again, when this is done - probably next week, a run through my editor and it may still make it out for Christmas :).
