I'm still around 3,800 some-odd word count for NaNo. I haven't written anything since Friday.

For perspective, by the end of Thursday I would want to be around 16,667 words. D:

And my personal goal was over 20,000, and then I had homework and papers and stuff.

Hopefully I can work some intense writing time around my homework today and tomorrow. The problem (well, the setback) is that this weekend I will be on a planning-retreat get-together. So not much time for writing there. I will be bringing my laptop and trying my hardest though to punch out a good word count though.

Oh! And I think I just figured out how to make my story more awesome. It's about two steampunk agents for the Queen that go around stopping antagonists and such from destroying the city, but of course there are general steampunk enthusiasts and inventors around too that don't work for the government. I was going to have one of these be a lovely lady love interest that would kick the butt of one of the baddies for them, but now I think I'll reveal an entire underground society/club of these folks who do the superhero-thing and use their steampunkness for good. Kind of like how Batman enhances himself with tools--these people will work together with their different devices, and then the goal would be to integrate them into the story more.

See? I don't want to stop writing...
