Still Writing, but No More Nano

 
It's official: I'm no longer participating in Nanowrimo 2010.
 
Today I wrote the first 1000 words in another (newly resumed) project. Depending on how many words I rack up each week, this project will likely be my main (only) focus for the next 4-6 weeks. I might do more writing later today. Or not. I consider the work I did on the book outline before I wrote to be "writing", even though it generates no words I can count.
 
I thought about adding my word production on this project (which will be called "Gunwitch" in my progress reports) to my Nano total, but decided that wasn't really in the spirit of Nano. Also, I'm more interested in my longterm continued writing than in Nano. There's more to the year than November (thank your favorite deity).
 
So…I wrote 26K words for Nano 2010. Not bad.
 
By the end of November, I should be up to 40K (or more) total words written in November. Which is, again, not bad.
 
I was tempted to add up my word count for 2010, but I'll wait and do that after the New Year.
 
On with the writing!
