Now we're at the end of the 2014 NaNo. I'm about 27,000 words into the story, which works out to be about 6 chapters. What that means in story progression remains to be seen, since I'm pantsing things. I don't have a firm plot outline, and just a few days ago I trashed an entire scene. The story actually works out better that way, even though I lost some character interaction I liked. We'll see if the emotional progress still makes sense with the deleted scene.
I'd thought of starting editing next month, but my mom broke her arm and I need to be able to drop whatever I'm doing when she calls. It's easier to pick up the threads when writing rather than editing. We'll see how it goes.
Here's to the end of the Nano. It's a time for putting things together and learning what we got out of the process =)
