Quitting NaNo

I have made a decision.

I'm giving up on NaNoWriMo this year. :( I'm too far behind from where I wanted to be by this time of the month, and I'm just not that into the story I chose to write. I know there are a couple of you who decided to start over again when you didn't like your original idea and have been successful at it, but I'm not that fast a writer. (Around 2,000 words a day seems to be my general limit, provided the writing is going well.) There's no way I would get to 50,000 words if I started over at this point, and I doubt I would be able to reach the goal even if I continued with the story I have been writing.

On the plus side, though, this has gotten me to write again. I haven't really felt the urge to write for a while now, ever since Hurricane Ike hit and I lost my old computer, but now I really want to get back to Melting Ice, my Kaleido Star story. So, there's a positive, right?  

Anyway, I wish everybody who is still participating the best of luck. ^_^

Final word count: 14,118 of mediocre crap
