Mighty Pens: Checkpoint
We are over halfway through the month and I seriously cannot find the lost time. How are you doing? Are you making it? Do you feel STELLAR? We have some killer writers this year, but I hope there’s at least one person out there who, like me, is just barely hanging onto NaNo. This year is tough, man.
Okay, okay, no need to get all in the feels. Because there is so much awesome stuff happening this year! So many checkpoints and achievements and leveling up. You did it. You made it here. And you can keep going.

Fundraising Tally
Way to go, everyone! There is still a ton of time left to hit up your friends, family, neighbors, random strangers for a few extra dollars. I mean, Thanksgiving is next week, so surely everyone will be in a giving mood. Right? Right. (Don’t forget that you’re allowed to donate to your own campaign if you haven’t already 😉)
$901 for WeForest
If you make it to 50k words this year, be sure to brag about it all over social media so your friends and family see how cool you are and feel obligated to celebrate. We can’t wait to see where we end up on the 30th, but for now, we are so excited for all the work that everyone is putting into raising money for this wonderful cause!
Word Count Tally
Wow! Everyone is seriously killing the game this year. You understood the assignment.
Over 506,000 Words Written
Every time you update that word count, this number goes up a little more. That is insane. Here’s where you can really tell that every word matters. And the fact that we’re all doing this together… Well, let’s just say I am super honored to be here with you this year.
We’ll do another round-up at the end of the month and I want to be blown away by the jump in these numbers. So get to work! We’ll see you on the other side of the war.
