I'm at 3574 words, on schedule and very slightly ahead. While this is good for NaNo terms its not good writing. Today's entire section is filler basically, something I would have written off in a paragraph because it has nothing to add to the story. It does show some small hints of Dan's character, but those could have been woven into more relevant scenes instead. Oh well, this is a rough draft and the time spent typing in filler gives me the opportunity to think ahead and try to figure out what is really going on. Finding a plot early would be nice, as opposed to my usual 15,000 words (or more) into things.
