NaNoWriMo Update Twelve
This update is 1808 words, which means I’m still catching up on that deficit a bit. Running total is 20240. Also, this one got a bit more sentimental than I thought it would. But hey, I managed to keep it from becoming an all out romance story! At least, I think I did. Guess we’ll…

NaNoWriMo Update Eleven
Catching up a bit tonight with a word count of 1739. Running total is 18432. He was in his usual rocking chair out in front of the jail, shotgun near at hand. “Arbiter,” he greeted Katherine stolidly as she approached. “I imagine you’re here about the outlaws who derailed that train a while back.”…

NaNoWriMo Update Ten
Today’s update is 1435 words, for a running total of 16693. I’m about two days behind at this point. Not horrible, but still not good. By the time they stopped to make camp the weather had cleared. They found a rock formation they could sit on instead of wallowing in the mud and made a…

That’s 1632 words this update. Running total is 15258.

NaNoWriMo Update Seven
1441 words tonight for a total of 117782. Not quite quota, but still just one day behind. Some time later Walter Hawkins woke with a start and covered in a cold sweat. His nightmares had been filled with torturous creatures that tore flesh from his bones and burrowed around inside his guts. He could still…

NaNoWriMo Update Six
BAM! A 2483 word update making up for my lack of wordage yesterday. Total now is 10341. It was almost a different town than Katherine remembered. The place was crawling with people as she and Lonesome rode in. Without the trains running there were a lot of folks sitting around waiting for the tracks to…

NaNoWriMo Update Five
Fell a bit further behind today, with only 1155 words. Not in too much trouble yet, especially if I can make it all up on the weekend. “Found any work yet, Lonesome?” Katherine looked past her boots as the Spirit Talker entered the Wayward Son. She’d made the saloon her unofficial headquarters while she was…

NaNoWriMo Update Four
Still about a day behind on the word quota, but keeping up otherwise. This update is 1563 words, for a total of 6702. He’d already trimmed his fingernails twice and didn’t think they could get any shorter, so now he was just idly running his thumb along the edge. “Just relax, Clay,” Morgan told him.…
