I reached 50,000 words last night, the first time I've ever finished early I believe. On the other hand, I still need to wrap up the storyline. So I allowed myself a little time for a celebratory post before climbing that last hill.

Congratulations!
ReplyDeleteYou and Ted are making me curious about these '80s electronic gadgets.
Congratulations! I once typed a few sentences on such a machine. It was slow typing; no pleasure for me. I hope you enjoyed it!
ReplyDeleteIt was not "fun" but better than my Alphasmart 3000.
DeleteDon't forget the wonders of fax paper rolls for these thermal baby wedges - no ribbon needed. A wire hanger and some tin tape makes for a nice temporary BAROP holder for Nano.. :D
ReplyDeleteIt seems the Typestar ribbons are rarer than the Brother ones (I find them on ebay often for a few bucks each, and sometimes find the carts in thrifts too). It's a shame they aren't compatible.
Thanks Ted - I had a bit of thermal calc paper for the Sharp pocket computer and it did produce legible text.
DeleteWell done Peter - I'm always in awe of those who go the distance!
ReplyDeleteGreat job on 50k words! I was never one for NaNoWriMo. We always had final exams in college around that time.
