I am beside myself with joy! :) I know three--yes, THREE--Elves/people that have already finished--owned--NaNoWriMo. So this post is in honor of them! :) This is in order of done-d-ness--those who finished first are first in line. :D

Firstly: Squeaks!
Squeaks has just finished her first novel (HALLELUJAH!), 'In the House of Ramsy Motch'. AMAZING! And what's even more epical, is that she is attempting to write the second book in the series by the end of November as well! WHOO! *applause* Good luck, Squeaks! :D And let us read it sometime. ;)
Second: EP (Elven Princess)!
This is also her first novel, the longest thing she has ever written. She finished it just behind Squeaks. :) GREAT JOB!! :D :D :D :D It amazed me the speed she was writing. :)
And thirdly (a success story), Millard! (see his post on his finished novel here)
On the eighth of November, Millard was at 10k. He hadn't written in four days, and he had frantically posted on whether or not he was going to try and catch up--or die trying. But then he did something amazing.
He wrote 40,000 words in SIX DAYS.
Believe it, readers! You want to see his stats? :D It was amazing! One of those days he actually wrote 10,000 words! One day! GO MILLARD! :D
Here is the comment I wrote on his blog:
"AGGGDKJSDJFSJDKFG!!! :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D
