Surpassed the 50% Milestone for NaNoWriMo
I was pleased when I passed the “halfway point” in this NaNo contest with plenty of story left to tell last night. Lately, I’ve been trying to jog my memory for the word counts of my previous two attempts with the NaNoWriMo contest. If I remember correctly, I don’t think I reached the 25K mark in my first and second attempts before the story fizzled out or I got stuck on a plot issue.
The writing process has been slow going, and the subplot is trying to take over the main plot. That’s okay because, although I had aspirations of publishing this story when I began writing it, I’ve decided that it’s more of a springboard for my future novels. I’m going to continue writing this story until my characters solve the mystery that they are working on. This story, still untitled, falls under the crime writing genre but with a paranormal (surprised?) twist.
How many of you have reached the 50K goal, or are close to it?

I reached the 50K mark yesterday afternoon. Good luck with your nanowrimo. Happy writing.
