Milestone # 7

I’m on a roll! I’m writing until my fingers hurt. I'll probably write all night. :)
This week will be another milestone for me. I’m determined to complete a novel I began in 2001. I’m nearly finished. Tomorrow is the last day of the KIA marathon and I think I’ll be turning in my weekly tally early. When this novel is complete, it will be #7.

ROFL Mad? Did you say mad? That's a compliment, Ray. :) By the end of this month's NaNoWriMo, I'll be in the madhouse for sure.
With one hour and fifteen minutes left in the first day, I'm just 45 words shy of the daily 1666 words a day. That's okay. I'll make up for it tomorrow. **I need a bouncy smilie in here** LOL
