Camp Nano - Day 24

Today's word count: 2,511

Today is my worst word count yet. Only 11 words over my minimum. It seems to be getting tougher the closer I am to the end of my story!  The words are coming fairly easily, but it seems like i'm not really getting close to the end, which I kinda need to be. I just can't bring myself to write the final bits for some reason! Maybe it's a fear that when I do it'll be all over. Or maybe just 'cause it's tough! 

But I can't believe I only have 3 more days of writing to go before I finish! THREE!!! This whole month has been an exhausting, draining, yet gratifying  crazy month of writing! well, less than a month, really! This whole experience has been great but really tough, but super fun and I've been surprised at all the directions the s

Does anyone have any suggestions of what I can do as a reward for myself for finishing writing my second novel? (granted the rough first draft!).

In November, I'm planning on spending that month at NaNoWriMo write-ins editing my manuscript, so hopefully by December (and with the help of a Beta Reader or two!) it'll be pretty decent!

I only have two more things to write about in my story:

1) my main characters rescuers finally coming to rescue him - but almost too late!

and 

2) the face off between my villain, my semi-evil Emperor, my Main character and his rescuers!

In fact, my villain (Gideon, as said before - sorry, Gideon (as in the actual person :P) is just about to hop in an airship to fly to the big final confrontation!

and my main character is about to face the Emperor for his trial!

and his rescuers are just about to reach the Emperor's palace and strike a deal with their captor! 

I feel like saying 'stay tuned for next weeks episode' lol.
