Despite all the encouragement I received, I really didn't even try. I ended up with 6000 words, a concept I like but that needs serious work, and 8 hours of sleep every night.
On the plus side, now that I have officially given up (instead of the wilfull ignoring of my word count that I've been engaging in for the past two weeks), I feel really motivated to work on something else. I couldn't bring myself to work on Non-nano stuff for November, so I ended up not writing at all. Bad. Now I'm back to drabbling (yay, instant gratification!), and I'm going to work on some fic before I go back to my original stuff.
We'll give this Nano thing another shot next year.

Do you think you might be able to come to the K/W TGIO party? Check the forums...we're still workin on a place.
