Worth 50,000: Day Six - Everybody Scream!

I don't know what to say right now. It might be because it's 1am (for the second time) as of the writing of this. It might be because it's been a long weekend of frantically typing and cackling like a loon and saying inappropriate things with people who don't mind all that much. Or it could be a little of both. I think mostly I'm just coming to the end of this first, beautiful week of Nano and the crazy is starting to set in. It starts off slow at the beginning of the month with everyone pulling out the 10,002 words they need by the end of Sunday night and then feeling pretty good about it. I mean, I've made some pretty cool breakthroughs with characters and uncovered some contention and layers I didn't previously know were there. But as it goes on we realize what a daunting task it's all become and start to doubt ourselves. It's that doubt that will do us in.

Just don't think about it now. Throw it away. Think about the light at the end of the tunnel and push on through. What could it be?
