Day 27...I'm just about there

I need only a few thousand words to make the 50,000 word mark. And I am out of ideas. Out. So desperate times call for desperate measures and I'm thinking of having my main character sit cross-legged on the floor and staring into one of those glass Christmas globes (the ones that 'snow' when you shake them), have the camera pan back and we discover that she is just a 5 year old child who has been dreaming the whole thing up. I'll call this part of the story: The St. Elsewhere Stolen Finale. And then spend the last 1000 words having my character write a long note that says "all work and no play makes Gabriella a dull girl", repeated a few hundred times.

The only thing I didn't throw in my 'novel' is a fateful trip that started as a three hour tour. But luckily there's always NaNoWriMo 2007.

It is too early in the morning to list things I've learned so far. Gotta get writing those last bits.
