I need a plot.

So, I'm thinking about writing a novel next month. NaNoWriMo. The goal is a 50,000 word novel, created entirely in November. If I wrote every day, I'd need to churn out about 1,700 words a day. Given that I wouldn't really do it everyday (e.g. on the days I put in 12-14 hours at work, wear a bridesmaid dress, give thanks for turkey, or otherwise make merry...)I figure my daily goal would have to be closer to 2,500 words.

That's alot of words, my friend. A lot of words.

Every week at work I write about 40 pages, give or take. I wonder how many words that is? Too bad they're confidential.

The really big worry: Novels need plots. Sans plot, 50,000 is even longer.
