This is going to be insane. 50,000 words in 30 days. That's 1667 words per day. That's me typing 40 words per minute, non-stop for almost 42 minutes straight....each day....for 30 days. Now, I know that I'll have "good" days and "bad" days, but still...on the average this is what I'm looking at. It's also about 2 and 1/2 pages in a 12-point, single spaced Word document....per day. :)
Why am I doing this again? And will my family remember who I am in December? Better question...will they forgive me? Come Thanksgiving, I'll probably have a turkey leg in one hand and pencil in the other.
I took a typing test and my speed varied from 68 to 82 wpm. So, maybe it won't be quite so bad...as long as I can think of a plot that quickly.
