how's it going?

it's going. 3400 words so far, that's almost exactly on target. if i keep up this pace i'll be at 51k words by the 30th.

of course, i won't keep up this pace, and this pace isn't even my pace: i wrote far more yesterday than today. and sooner or later i'll run out of Great Ideas and have a fat block. and of course, november is the worst possible month for such an exercise, but that's the point of it.

i remember reading paulp's attempt, and he got off to an enthusiastic start too, which petered out definitely by hte end of hte month, and possibly by mid month. i'll attempt to avoid that, but no promises.
