I FUCKING WIN.

I have something important to say to all of you tonight, something so profound that it will shake the very foundation of your souls. And no, I will not beat around the bush with it, or bore you with it. I will say it bluntly and in an exteremely immature fasion. All the same, it will shock, amaze, awe, and astound you, my faithful readers.

I. FUCKING. WIN.

It’s that simple. I fucking win. I have surpassed the fifty thousand word mark, and I will be forever immortalized as somebody who won NaNoWriMo by the internet archive sites, such as the Way Back machine and the Google Cache.

Because, ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, normals and teeps: Mind War is at 50,020 words. And damnit, that feels good, especially after last year’s pitiful 28k-day-17 dropout. I now realize how close I was to finishing last year, but I let that slip away. And thank god I did not let it put me off trying NaNo again.

Now, the question that is on all of your minds (no, not ‘is this fucking loon on crack?’ you wiseass, the other question): Is Mind War over? Is it done? Can I print it knowing that Owl will not be adding anymore?

The answer to that is simple: No. It is not done. While I may have won the NaNo, I have yet to win the war. For this evening, yes, I have finished my work. But for the month? Nay! It is only day 13, and there is are still lives that must be taken, prophecies that must come to pass, and destinies amongst the stars to fufill.

But, ladies and gentlemen, I have won a tremendious victory this year. I now know that 50,000 words is an attainable goal in under three weeks.

And oh boy, I can’t wait until next year.

Mind War, at a victorious 50,020 words.

Entering The Home Strech

On the cusp of NaNoWriMo week three, I have broken in to the National Novelist Home strech - the last ten thousand words to 50k. Yes, ladies and gentlemen, you read the correctly; I am now at 40,150 words, having written 7,058 today to get there.

And it’s only Saturday.

Mind War at 40,150 words.

Forward.

I’m running out of commentary.

This was the first political bit that I was pleased with at all. The rest of the motivational / bullshit speeches I’ve written were too short and sucked.

Mind War at 33,092 words.

New Record!

Mind War is now 29,029 words, breaking Eron’s record of being my longest piece of literature ever.

Enjoy.

Tankin’ Onward

Yep. I’m still going.

Mind War at 27,037 words.
