Camp NaNoWriMo is over for another year and, honestly? I’m a little sad about that. The writing event is usually a bit hit and miss with me – sometimes with me achieving more than I planned, and sometimes coming nowhere near my goal – but this time around I stayed about the middle, getting further than I did in July and being happy with all the resulting words, but still not finishing. Given how my health has been the last two weeks, though, I’m satisfied with that.

But Ellie, I hear no one ask, how many words did you actually write?

• 10,500 words towards my novel draft
• 10 Blog Posts (totaling 2,000 words)
• 3 pieces of Fan Fiction (2,500)
• 1 Short Story (4,800)
• 2 Poems (200)

Goal for August? 15,000 words total – across all projects.
