Errol: I think Ed is underestimating Victoria’s wordcount in this. 😀 BTW, Debbie Ohi is back in town. I’m so happy. 😀
Debbie: I’m happy that Errol’s happy. The line about chapter headings, by the way, came from Talis Kimberly’s X-Libris song, and the combined wordcount line came from Cassandra Marshall’s list of author pick-up lines.
Lol. Classic Ed. Come to kind of it, I don’t know if any pickup lines work. Although a character in my novel seems to like them very much (they really aren’t helping him either, though).
I also reached 50k today! So excited. Still have about 25k more to write before the story is complete. 🙂
Huzzah! Congrats on 50k! 😀 😀 I had more to complete my story… and didn’t bother. Ah well… hopefully some day.
Congrats on reaching 50k today, Takayta!!!!
congrats! I am almost there and I agree with the whole needing 25 k after just to finish my novel too.
Ha! I loved this one. The pick up lines are hilarious! 😀 But I am curious, will we get to see Dave and the rest of the gang soon?
Soon! 😀
Thanks, Lee — glad you liked this strip. 😀
Hahahaha. Now that’s a creative pickup line. I hit 50k!!! Best. Feeling. Evah!
HUZZAH! 50k! Congratulations! It is a great feeling! 😀 😀
Woohoo, Dawn!!! Mega-congrats on hitting 50k!!
Hilarious! I need to use those on… I have no clue! at 45k
Great, I’m like 20,000 words behind where everyone else is, this feels awesome .__.
I’d been sitting at 13000 words until yesterday. I’ve now got 18,500 because of my boyfriend’s little pep talk, although that’s still way far behind. I’ve never written so much in one day, ever!
Wherever you are in your novel, don’t give up! Just hack away at it little bits at a time. Good luck!
Don’t worry about anyone else! If I worried about what everyone else thought, I’d probably never have gotten around to doing these comics, or the musical! 🙂
If I was lucky enough to actually have I boyfriend (which I’m probably not xDD) he would have to be a Wrimo for many reasons:
-He can make me tea
-Competing for highest WC
-He’ll understand why I’m acting like a serial killer, because he’ll be the exact same way
-Encouraging each other to write
-He can make me tea
You looking for a boyfriend, Paige? 😀 😀
I dunno about Victoria, but any of those pickup lines would have worked on *me*.
I once did exactly that when a drunken idiot tried to a) mock me for writing while on vacation and b) then saying he was also a writer since he was a blogger. Close laptop, disappear.
Love your cartoons guys! The first nano I did back in 2009 was so awesome in part because I would relate to the characters so much and I’d laugh so hard! Nanotoons are awesome!
Love it! I’m totally using the pick up line someday, just for the heck of it. 😀
