Here's another update. To make things easier this Nano I'm going to use the following format from now on.
Word count:
As 2am this morning I'm at 14,869 words - a little over 3k away from the required 18333. Woo! Completely doable. The story itself is only 3 scenes in and clunky but slowly growing on me. Clearly another reason why it's good to plan/plot/character develop before NaNo, but I'll get the hang of it as I go along.
Inner Critic:
Still loud and very annoying. I've decided to appease her by letting those nasty comments become a part of the story - either through the snarky narrator or as notes that will inevitably be removed.
Actual Novel:
My goal this weekend is to try and get the novel itself caught up to the required 18k, but that means that I'm really at 7,811 a much more depressing 10,522. Blegh.
Characters Dead:
1 - The Great Vincenzo - Fell ill and died (in exposition)
Where are they?
The lovers are introduced, sort of and my MFC is about to sneak off to see a magic show.
Alright...back to writing!

Rock on!!!
So I didn't reach 45,000...I got 42,000.
But it's looking good so far. I fell behind because I had homework for one of my classes and it took up a bunch of my time [URG...so pissed about during the break homework].
Any who...except for a quick trip to Goodwill, I should be able to spend all day writing. So a goal like 50,000 might be within my reach.
Hooray!
Where are my characters now?
Devii has reunited with Cael in the forest and Silas isn't too happy about it because Cael seems to have a grudge against his kind.
Do I smell love triangle? Hrmmm?
Othena and Zavier are resting peacefully a few miles away. They'll soon find out Cael is missing when they wake up. Huzzah!
G'night folks.
