Well done!

Not quite at half way myself yet, but I wrote just over 6k today, so I'm knackered.

Just realised I am over halfway..LOL
I keep getting to a point where it is ONLY 300 words until the next 1k so have kept going..hehe
I am not even halfway through my story so I think this will go beyond the 50k.

My idea of hell is being trapped in a room with no books!

Just hit my halfway point for my book. I know how the story's going to end, but I have a feeling there's going to be a healthy amount of padding before I get there.

Thankfully, I have a few extra scenes that I've been planning on putting in that I haven't gotten to yet...

I hit my halfway, too! And I second that about healthy padding. My problem is, I used up all my extra scenes tonight, lol. ;-)

One of the first things I'm doing when I put in my editing is I'm figuring out exactly when this story takes place and over what amount of days. The first draft is helping out enormously with that...

My story is over a fortnight, it's amazing how much can happen in that time. My poor MC. It is now Thursday, dress rehearsals for the play, then the big opening night tomorrow Friday when all the niggling bits come together. :)

I just stumbled upon a nice little revealing moment that's going to (hopefully) have the audience going "Whoa..."

And I just put my poor MC through an advanced piece of exercising equipment that caused his leg muscles to cramp up so bad he starts crying.
