NaNoWriMo 2009 – Day 28

Day 28 stats:

Min. Daily Average Word Count: 1,667

Word Count Goal: 2,500

Actual Word Count: 2,101

Daily Word Count Score (words in excess of min daily average): +434

Total Word Count Score: 47,022

Chapters complete: 20

Presuming no big problems, should have this wrapped up a day early!

A History and Future of Collaborative Storytelling

No particular axe to grind or agenda to sell, just my observations after watching this space for a few years. Buckle up, this […]
