NaNoWriMo 2013 - first 10 days

So much for catching up! I'm currently about 6,000 words behind. The good news is that I know I have enough material to pass 50,000 words. It might even be a good story. I just need to make it happen by the end of the month.

In looking at my progress thus far, I looked at how well I had done with keeping on-pace in years past. The result? The first three NaNos I did were pretty well paced. I made steady progress and crossed the 50k mark toward the end of the month. The following two? Fits and spurts. I still made 50k, but each one was a slow start and hard finish. Here are the graphs:

2008

2009

2010

2011

2012
For 2009 and 2010 I also went well past the 50k mark. I'm hoping this year will bring many more words, since it's the sequel to the 2010 book, which topped 60k.
