Total words written Day 12 = 4,352
I do believe this is the earliest I have ever met the 50k word count in NaNovember! I did it!
November 13, 2023 I surpassed the target of writing 50,000 words in a month. My writing for November is far from over - but that benchmark was met. 
Maybe I will go for a double-NaNo this year. I am going to be shifting to more editing words than generating new words. I do have a final project coming up due very soon, and I chose to complete this draft's edits as my "senior" project.
And I will continue writing, but probably a little bit slower pace.
Tomorrow after work I will be heading to the coast for a few days for my annual November writing retreat. I think that the beach will be the perfect place to sink into book revision.
For now: congratulations to me! And here's a toast of kombucha to the next leg of this writing journey.
