Last day of the 30,000 words, 7 days challenge!!

As of right now, I think I can finish my book in about 10,000 words. The challenge of this is actually going to be the organization, not the writing. I've got a few parts that need to be linked together and getting to all of those is going to be interesting. I will of course try. :) My plan is to post throughout the day and well into the night, my final post around 12 a.m. with my final word count. Unless I am so close to finishing that I can't stand NOT posting. Then who knows. I hope you get a chance to check back, but it's Friday and I totally understand if you don't get a chance. :)

Here's where I stand:
about 15,000 words left, could be as less as 7,000  or as much as 17,000, such is the life of a pantser.
As of right now I have: 77,548 words

I hope all of you are reaching your writing goals! Also, be sure to stop by the INK SLINGERS blog next week. We're having all kinds of festivities for the month of Halloween!!!

Wow!!! What an ambitious goal. I'm very impressed, even if you don't make it all the way to 30,000.
