good
writersgrove, this is old news to you. For those of you who haven't, though, here's an update.I hit the halfway mark on Thursday, and I've been managing to get somewhere between (the required) 1667 and 2000-odd words a day. I've been writing a lot on my old IBM Thinkpad 380, which is perfectly fine for word processing and has the added advantage of not having a lot of extra things on it (it's harder to get on the 'Net with it, for example), so I don't have as many distractions.
My story is about monster hunters in a fantasy analogue of Elizabethan England. I guess you could call it a cross between Buffy The Vampire Slayer and Elizabeth. A fair amount of inspiration for it came from Mercedes Lackey's books, Ill-Met By Moonlight and This Scepter'd Isle; I replaced the elves with slayers and sorcerers, and went from there.
If you'd like to be put on my NaNo filter, where I post word counts, excerpts and random observations about NaNo, leave a comment here and I'll add you to the filter on
writersgrove. Longtime friends who are already on the filter are all set; you don't need to reply. :)
