Something that I find quite helpful is to open a new text document each day. It means you have to do a little math to figure out your total wordcount, but it also cuts down on the temptation to edit yesterday's work.
Yesterday evening, I did another strong push and finished chapter two, adding 2,038 more words to my count. So day one ended up being a 4k day for me! I even got to end the chapter on a 'take me to your leader' joke.

The First Day
And they're off!
Despite what I said on Wednesday, I did actually end up starting at midnight on Halloween night. I wrote from midnight until 3 AM, but thanks to the miracle of DST managed to get four hours of writing done in that time. I finished all of chapter one, racking up 2,001 words before bed.
Anyone else get anything on paper yet?
