Things Are Getting Ugly
Word Count: 24,200

Mistakes: Many
Language: Butchered
Sanity: 23%
We're supposed to be up to 30,004 by the end of today?? Great. I see in the genre-count index that Horror has risen from when we were starting off. It's the detailed descriptions of dismemberment and assorted organs falling out. I'm trying to look for anything amusing I can post from my novel but it's all incredibly boring. I'm starting to write really padded, redundant sentences to up my word count. It's strange. It makes everyone sound like they just started learning English:
"Come with me to the library. I need to get a book."
This is bad. REALLY bad.
Last lines written:
Wrek wanted to play a prank on a friend he didn't like very much. The first step involved killing a small defenseless animal.

I too have written a book. It's all based on quotations. "Significant Moments." It can be accessed from the above site. Good luck with your writing.
Padded and redundant sentences are your friend! You're not that far off the mark--and of course there's the upcoming weekend in which to catch up.
If it makes you feel any better, my latest chapter is almost entirely information regurgitation.
