Another Big Push - 13,254 and counting

I've been under the weather for a large part of this week, and for the last two days, I've spent most of the the curled up in my chair in my big fluffy bathrobe, asleep. I seem to be getting an upper respiratory infection. However, after sleeping on and off most of today, I was able to get several hundred words over my stated word goal for today.

So, here comes the next goal. As you can see, I'm in for a really rough time of it if I'm to get to 50,000 words this month. What might set me up for a big push forward during the last week of this challenge is to see if I can make 25,000 by the end of week three. According to my number crunching, if I can write 2,938 words each day--Friday, Saturday, Sunday and Monday--then I'll begin the last week at: 25,000. I'm ready to make a stab at it.

I did, however, set aside Dragon Naturally Speaking. Perhaps it needs re-training. Perhaps my user profile is corrupted. There are major mistakes in almost each sentence. Right now, I just don't have the time to retrain it. Simply put, I type well enough that its mistakes are too irritating for me to deal with. My own typing is far from perfect, but I'm fast. I can recognize what I meant if I mis-type a word or phrase. But Dragon's mistakes sometimes give me no clue.

I downloaded and installed WriteWay software for writers. It's also a free trial copy with--I believe--a discount for those who use it while participating in NaNoWriMo. Unfortunately, I kept getting an error message when I tried to run the program. If I have time tomorrow, I may try to figure out what went wrong and what adjustments in settings I need to make. Their tech support team did get back to me right away. Yea! Tech Support!!
