NaNoWriMo - Day 30 (Final!)

My word count (in Scrivener) passed 50,000 words last night and that's what I posted up on NaNoWriMo but when I validated the word count in MS Word, it was only 46,700.  That's because I'd excluded 4 files of text (from the re-write of Chapter 7).  I re-included them this morning, since I actually did write those words, and validated my manuscript up on the NaNoWriMo website and passed!

Here's my final stats:

Here's the winner's banner that I can now post:

So, now I have an incomplete 50,286 word manuscript.  What's the next step?  Find some alpha readers and continue pushing it out to the end.  Then do a major re-write, find an agent, and see if I can get it published.

Woohoo!
