The widget’s in place, but it’s not working yet… other people have had some difficulties with them as well, so it’s not just me. All in due time…

Going into today, I’m sitting at 9,285/50,000. Not bad. I’m ahead of where you’re officially supposed to end Day 5, and will certainly surpass the day 6 total easily… which has led me to consider upping my total for the month.

I’m not sure if it’s possible, seeing as how I have a number of major events coming up, starting next week – however, if I can manage to snag a few 5k days, I could possibly finish the month with 75k. Like I said, I’m not sure if that’s feasible or even if I should try to think along those lines, because all I really want to do with this year’s NaNo is finish my story, regardless of how long it is (beyond 50k, that is). I’m fairly certain that, with the way things are going, I’ll need to write plenty more than 50k to get things wrapped up, even though I initially thought it would be more than enough. Then again, writing a lot means I have more to cut and/or condense later, ultimately making it a better story. I hope. o_O

In other news, I’ve received 2 more free books in the past week. I think I’ll finish them and then post reviews, as opposed to just throwing the covers up on here in my exuberance.

And now, enough procrastinating. Time to get writing… 5k day, here I come!
