Word War

I was a little bit leery of the concept of a word war at first. I wasn't sure if I'd be able to produce coherent prose at a rapid pace while under pressure of trying to keep up with someone as prolific as Karisha, but I have to say it was a rush. She put out 1604 words and I put out 1439, both in just under 24 minutes. I can honestly say I've never written anything that quickly before and it turned out to flow much better than I'd feared it would. Now my word count is up to 6361, just 300 below what I'd originally planned to have at the start of the day today. I'm feeling really good about this and I'm glad I decided to participate in NaNoWriMo this year.
