Amazing! What a stunning achievement! We should all spend the next couple of minutes patting ourselves on the back.
Done?
OK, now back to writing. How soon can we make it to a quarter of a million words?
OVER 200,000! Well done everyone!
I finished off those things I thought I'd do over OberNoWriSu. If I was sensible, I'd quit writing while I'm ahead, but instead today I've written about 3000 words towards some new senseless short story that decided to spew out of what I loosely refer to as my mind.

Awesome Darga, can't wait for you to share it.
Excellent work!
I just wanted to give a bit of a cheer to everyone who's still hard at work on their OberNo writing goals. It certainly does get harder as the weeks go by but we all seem to be making the effort to sit down and lose ourselves in our imaginary worlds and I think that's worth a cheer. Huzzah!
Keep up the good work, everyone! :D
So with just under three weeks left, I figure it's time to have a look at how everyone is doing so far.
Going by Darga's awesome graphs, in perhaps a shock twist, Deb is in the lead with a whopping 96% of her personal target reached. Jossie is in second place with 90% , shortly followed by the flailing, well, me on 88%, but nipping on my heals is Vestie on 87%. Still battling away, next is Katie with 79%, and Araleen with 63%. Nef is almost at the halfway mark with 43%, and then Ariadne, Zara, Arwen, Arctic Firefox and Daniel have busted out around a quarter of their goals with 27%, 26%, 26%, 25% and 24% each, respectively.
I'm happy to announce I have reached my 20k word goal for the summer :D There were times I worried I wouldn't make it, but I have. The write-ins were super helpful, contributing 6k words :) I can't wait for the next one.
Congratulations Vestie! You've done much better than I have....

I finally managed to sit down this month and write some more, thus reaching just over 10k :) I was getting a bit concerned that I wouldn't make it though.
Congratulations Vestie on reaching your goal :D
Congratulations, Arwen and Vestie - it's fantastic that you've both reached your goals before Summer is even over!
Congratulations on reaching your goals ahead of schedule Arwen and Vestie. Congratulations everyone else on all your hard work. We've all written so much this summer and we should be proud of ourselves. Eight days left everyone. Good luck for the final stretch of OberNoWriSu.

Last week of Obernowrisu. Wow, I actually made a target for a change, thanks to the writeins. So glad we are going to continue them.
Good luck everyone for this week.

So, in the event that Darga is still updating the great spreadsheet of writing glory, here's the full overview of my write:
1 January: 570
4 January: 903
8 January: 601
2 February: 408
22 February: 1,490
23 February: 1,492
24 February: 1,082
25 February: 1,001
26 February: 1,083
27 February: 1,105
28 February: 280
TOTAL WORDS: 10,015
(Target was 10,000.)
For a moment, I had a minor panic while calculating this as I ended up 31 words short, but then after some careful recounts I'm back about where I thought I was. ~:|
