I'm giving up before I start. There's no way I'll be able to work in this /and/ apply to colleges.

Let's hope your novel doesn't have as many typos as your posts. :P

Plus a dozen different projects I need to have done by December. Free time just isn't happening for me this month.

Two days to go! Hope you guys are ready.

I am ready as in I know how much I need to write per day and how long it will take for me to write it, hopefully overestimated.

Around 3-3.5 pages per day if I calculated it correctly.

I got between 5 and 6 pages. But I could be off.

I based it on downloading 10k text of lorem ipsum and copy pasting it 5 times into word. I ended up with 90 pages of text (Times New Roman, if I recall correctly).

30 days in November

~3 pages

By the way, CreateSpace is giving away a free proof if you want a hard copy of your book. :OOOO

Ah, see, I did it by word count. I estimated I'll need to write 2,000 words a day, which I'm allowing four hours for, at somewhere under ten words a minute. This allows for days where I might falter, and is also (I hope) fairly overestimated.
