Well, I managed to write enough words today to be considered “on schedule” to meet my goal of 50k words by the end of November. I’m really happy about that. I’ve got one week left and a nice long weekend at the end of it to get everything wrapped up. This all sounds good, but there’s a problem. You see, I just wrote the end of the story.
Yes, that’s right. I’m done. I’ve told the story.
So now what am I going to do with the remaining 13k words I still have to write? Well, I don’t really know. I had this problem before, the last time I wrote a novel during NaNoWriMo, and the only thing I can think to do is go back and add stuff to the story that’s not really there. I can’t do any editing, I can only add stuff, so doing that is going to be a challenge. Hopefully it’ll work out. I really thought I had enough plot to last the whole month, too. Next time around, I’m going to do two novel’s worth of plot so I won’t run out.
