NaNoWriMo Day 15
and all the time it all files by
them
---------------------

We woke to warm temperatures today
with highs expected in the 60's! It was a foggy morning on AuTrain Lake
and I snapped this photograph during my early morning walk.
I'm keeping my head above
NaNoWriMo water. I'm over two thousand words ahead of the daily average I
need to maintain in order to reach 50,000 words by the 30th of November.
It's been another productive NaNoWriMo day
so far as I've
managed another 2,254 NaNoWriMo words, bringing my accumulated total to 27,395.
I updated my word count on the official NaNoWriMo web site:

They have worries,
they're counting the miles, they're thinking about where to sleep
tonight, how much money for gas, the weather, how they'll get there
- and all the time they'll get there anyway, you see. But they
need to worry and betray time with urgencies false and otherwise,
purely anxious and whiny, their souls really won't be at peace
unless they can latch on to an established and proven worry and
having once found it they assume facial expressions to fit and go
with it, which is, you see, unhappiness, and all the time it all
files by them and they know it and that too worries them no
end.
