Haven't even had a chance to get started.
This is the first year I'm working with an outline, so far, I am in 17429 words in.
Good for you.
It's just frustrating. Every time I think I will have time to write, something pops up to fill the time. I was hoping with Penngirl in school for the mornings this year, I could get stuff done, but damn. It's like that rule about gases expanding to fill up the container their in. Things keep expanding into that "bubble" I'd hoped to use for writing.

I have the same thing. Today it was my son. He needed a ride home after the water pump went out on his truck. Saturday it was a wedding shower I forgot about. This weekend is family pictures. It never stops.
Ditto here. I thought I'd have the whole weekend. Six hours spent shopping, sewing, and dealing with Senior pictures for my daughter. Editing her essays and Resume for her college admissions, (8 essays so far!) must be another 10 hours. This is driving me crazy.
I'm at 19K words, but thought I'd be halfway done by the end of the weekend. At least 90% of my research and outline are done.
Keep plugging away all, we can do this.
...
So, I definitely won't finish, but I will keep plugging away at it. Maybe a couple of hundred words a day to warm for writing about cabinets or some such.
Ah well. Writer's write, and I will continue to do so.
Another story, or at least part two of a story, completed and submitted.
2,300 new words added to an old, now revised and extended, draft.
Total for November: 29,000
Three stories are now pending.
Ogg, I like your idea of using NaNo, and even November, as a kick start to writing more. I may institute a monthly writing goal, to keep me motivated to keep writing. Especially on the longer, unfinished projects I have going.
What would be a good word count goal for each month? 50,000 seems maybe a touch high, but maybe 1,000 words per day? Hmmmm ...
Set that number to something comfortable for you, not to what someone else thinks it should be.
