I'm trudging right along with the novel... but raced over the 50K NaNoWriMo finish line today at about 3:30pm.
My plan is to continue writing this novel throughout the month. I'm projecting a total word count of 100K to 120K. We'll see what happens with it. Without a doubt it is nowhere near done, and I'm happy about that.
My other two NaNoWriMo novels were written for children ages 9-12 (middle grade novels) and so ending at 50 to 60K was fine for them, but not for this one.
