I'm already a day behind, but I know my first sentence. "Still, they continued to talk of spiders." I'm pretty sure Nate thinks I won't do it which is just enough motivation to do it and do it well. Maybe I'll do 60,000 words just to show him.

GREAT AMERICAN NOVEL
Yesterday Jordan mentioned National Novel Writing Month and the challenge of writing a 50,000 word novel by the end of November. Broken down this is roughly 1,700 words per day. It's not a contest {except with yourself} and as far as I know there isn't a winner {if you submit 50,000 words by midnight on Nov. 30 - you are considered a success}.
