NaNoWriMo Challenge : day 11

Here is the 11th part of the story, Sahel is getting all this powers and growing up really fast. Gideon is taking care of the dark shadow, but something is telling me that it won't let us rest and bring more problems to solve.

Today was a pretty good writing day two, in two steps. I was doing from virtual write-in sessions with my friend before going to bed in the very early morning which kept me awake until 3am and added about 1500 words to the story.
Of course when I wake up today there was no way for me to write less than my 2500 words even if I had 1500 already. So today I beat up my daily record again.
In a sense reaching the 25000 words free me a bit. Now I know I'm very close to the end and that I will probably achieve it without to much problem. My main preoccupation now is to write enough to finish the story. But the end will take care of itself as long as I keep on writing.

Stats of the day 4019 words written which add up to 33168 words in total. But I'm not sleepy yet and lots of things will happen again before I go to bed.

NaNoWriMo Challenge : day 10

Today was a great writing day, well especially after 6pm. I don't know why, before in the afternoon I was really slow at writing. Maybe because i have been thinking a lot about part of the story that will happened later.
You see I first I started to draw the part of the story, mostly to avoid writing them before the first of November but also to see if I could imagine the end of the story. I often started to write stories without finishing them.
This time as so many people would be able to read it i really want a good ending and you will have one. I'm not sure that I will reach it after finishing the 50000 words but I'm sure than I won't stop writing this story before the end. I think my characters really deserve it and writing through all of those words made me really attached to them and to the story. Once again I hope you will enjoy reading this part as much as I enjoyed writing it.

NaNoWriMo challenge : ninth day

Today, was mad, mad, mad. I couldn't get up in the morning because the story had been turning in my head all night. I went to the lab pretty late to finish my thesis corrections and run back home to arrive at 4.30 without having written a word of the story.
I spend 1 hour writing 943 words before going to the write-in and there a miracle happened I wrote 1924 words there. So I have even more than my daily goal.

Today stats : 2867 words written which add up to 25509 words in total.
I feel happy and relieved because I have more than half done before than expected.

NaNoWriMo challenge : eighth day

I feel a bit bad for Sahel.
Why does he always have to get sick to get anything in life ?
Demon life is very difficult you see. But don't worry to much for him, he is in good hands and he will become a very strong and healthy demon.
Strangely he is getting his powers over air first. I wasn't prepared for that. Really I was only prepared for the fire and water elements, I needed to do some more research today to make sure to write something at least half sensible.

Stats of the day, 2529 words written which add up to 22641 words in total.
Normally, I would be half way in words for the NaNoWriMo challenge tomorrow.

NaNoWriMo challenge : seventh day

Today I got up a little sick, I'm still feeling a bit weak but I'm much better.
That didn't stop me from writing the next part of the story. I'm now way above my word goal. As today is the seventh day I needed to reach 17500 words to be on track.
Actually the more you write, the easier it becomes.
Today I'm introducing knew characters. Some are close to the fairy world and I even added an angel who had only appeared briefly before in the story.
I hope you will like them as much as I do. I'm not really sure that all the characters introduced so far in the story will have any importance latter, or even reappeared. The main thing for me to work with now is Gideon.
I didn't planed at all to have him in the story but he is becoming more and more important as I'm writing.
The story is still open and comments and advices are welcome.

The stats of the day, 3092 words written which add up to a total of 20112 words. As I said I'm terrible for keeping track of the time, but I work several hours a day.

NaNoWriMo challenge : sixth day

One more writing day which didn't look like the one before. This afternoon I went out to meet people, I had only written about 500 words before going and I really didn't know if I would be able to get to my minimum of 2500 words as usual. That was still fun do be able to talk about my novel to other people than my fellow NaNoWriMo writer.
I finally got 2482 words today but as I'm not going to sleep yet I'll probably have a bit more soon.
The total word count add up to 17018 words.

NaNoWriMo challenge : fifth day

Again a very great day writing. I feel like the more I write, the more I want to write and the easier it becomes.
Today I tried something new, virtual write-in. I already went to a write it last Monday in a café with other people from my region. Basically we talked and then we gave ourselves some time for intensive writing. I did that today with a friend in America with whom I was talking on the chat box.
That worked wonder, for her and for me. I really hope to be able to do it more often. It's good to have people to talk to as well when you start wondering about your story.

So the stats of the day : 3364 words written which add up to 14536 words in total
That's my best day ever so far.
