My ending Nano tally:
The widget isn’t 100% accurate – I’m at 35230 for the month. Not what I wanted, but I’m still pleased with it. Hitting the halfway mark with the book – my total count is around 47k for the full novel, I think.
The trick is momentum – I had well over a week in which I moped and whined about not getting wordcount. But I’ve noticed that if you get wordcount one night, it’s easy to get wordcount the next night. It’s tricky to climb back into a scene after leaving it for a week. 
Anyone else have good Nano results?
I finished at 50,655!!! I never thought I would make it, and am pretty sure the book is blah, but I have never been more proud of myself!! I found it was really hard to get back into it after taking a few days off too. But I used the Thanksgiving Holiday (no family around) to knock out over 10k words in 4 days.
