I am now over 6,000 words ahead of my word goal! Yay!

I think I will need this buffer in week 2. This is when it gets hard to see where the plot will go next. I have a myriad of characters, so I'm just hoping that they will work it out for me. I'll just go with the flow.

I do have a rough idea of where the novel will end up, and I've even had an idea for a sequel.

I know I said that I wanted to hit 25,000 today if I wasn't working, and I wasn't working, but I did have a lot of other things to do. I did write nearly 2,000 words in an hour though, so hopefully I will hit 25k tomorrow.
