I started out November 1st and stuck with it until I'd finished the first draft my novel, Waterdeep. It takes place in the same universe Connelly's story does, but at an earlier point in time. All in all it clocked in at 50,193 words. Now to write the second draft! I'm already seeing places where it can be tightened up and fixed. I've got a thick stack of paper on which every word has been printed. Soon a smattering of notes will line the margins, I'll start making outlines, and I'll be on my way to an even better version.

Which brings me to the next bit: I've been writing short stories within my universe to kinda' help flesh things out. Unfortunately I've also started trying to publish, so the most I can give here are short little snippets. I'll keep you posted on the places that publish me though, for sure!

And now, here's the little image I got for completing NaNoWriMo. I needed a place to put it and here's just as good as any. :-)
