Panic Mode
Is anyone else going into panic mode? I know that I can complete this, but I need to get 2 7K days in order to finish it as I am doubting that I was
get much writing done on Friday and Saturday. I have only written 2K this week due to me being busy.

Big time on Monday. I was a little calmer yesterday, but today... I know I will not be able to get much writing down tomorrow, and I really should
concentrate on a performance I am to have that day today also. The only consolation for that, is that I have included the story for the performance
into my WirMo, so until the story is completed, I am at least able to do both. But the performance is oral - I will need a lot of time working on it
and not writing. And I need something like you a day to finish.

I have today to finish, as we're going away on holiday tomorrow.
I think I count as fully in panic mode. =P 10.5K day, when I didn't sleep last night in order to get to this point.

Panic mode? Not really. I'm so far behind and typing with only one hand (I sprained my other hand) that there is no way to do the 5.75K per day I
need. If I had both hands, yes I'd be panicking. But I gotta accept life I guess. I've hit 2.5K per day with one hand before, but usually it's only
2k.

I wish you all the best of luck! 
Ragnelle: I understand how you are feeling and although I will be able to write tomorrow, I don't think that I am going to have as much time as what I
thought.
Cherri: Good luck! The most I've written in one day (as far as I know) is roughly 6.2K.
KathrineROID: I'm sorry to hear about the sprain, I hope that your hand gets better soon. Even if you don't make 50K, you've written more than what
some people have this month. During NaNo, I didn't even get up to 15K! At least you're being a good loser about you not finishing! I, however, don't see you as a loser, you're still a winner even if you didn't
write the full 50K!

Good luck, you guys. Panic mode sucks -_- All I can say is just keep writing, listen to a lot of music and don't feel too bad - it's not the end of
the world if you lose, right?
As for me, I've hit almost exactly the daily minimum every single day this month, so I'll be right where I should be in about half an hour, when I'll
finish today's writing. I have no idea how I did it, but no panic mode over here. Which makes me feel almost a little guilty =/

WORDS UNTIL 50k: 0k! HURRAY! My first WriMo, too.

Thanks kyeiskitkat! I'm so close now, though, so I'm sure I'll finish. I just
need to write from now until I go to bed and for an hour or two tomorrow and then hopefully I can wrap it up on Friday or Saturday. There is no need
to feel guilty! I started late anyway and am very proud of myself anyhow!

I've only hit panic mode once this month. That was close to the middle of the month and I was almost four days behind. That was no fun considering I'm
not used to writing that much in a day. But I caught up! I'm sure a lot of you will too! And as an earlier poster said...we are all winners. Many
people say they will write a novel and never do it. And yet here we all are! That is an accomplishment in itself!

panic mode has hit it had hit a couple days ago but now I'm doing the denial that the month is almost over. I will just keep a typing and hope for the
best. I have about 20k or so still to write. I know I can write it if I don't get interrupted or get stuck with that stupid writers block that has
been pounding on the wall I put up in my head.
A wall can only be used as a block for so long before something knocks it down and it's slowly going down. I feel it crumbling kind of like my word
count...lol. Back to writing.

I am no longer panicking, I have just over 5k left to write until I reach the finish line and around 6 hours and 40 minutes to do it in. I wasn't sure
if I was going to finish a few days ago and would have still been very pleased even if I didn't finish. I haven't been rushing and have gotten
distracted along the way perhaps only writing around 1k per hour where as if I were to sit down and have no distractions I could write 2000+ words per
hour.
I'm sure you'll finish RedAngel19 and if you don't, there is no need to fret as you would have tried your best. Good luck!

Thanks!! I have 2100 words to write with 1.5 hrs left to go. Panic is not there but I know I should be writing just trying to get the last bit out of
my head.
