NaNoWriMo



For the first time ever, I get to do NaNoWriMo this year!

For those who don't know, NaNo is National Novel Writing Month. Every participant is challenged to write 50,000 words in the month of November, which is either a very short novel or a huge start to one.

I wasn't going to be able to "officially" participate because my next project was to be a book I've already started, and the rules are that it has to be a fresh project. But an old idea that I only partly liked clicked on Sunday, and I'm all set to go with it.

I'm very self-competitive, and this is a challenge I've always wanted to undergo. I can't wait!

My bet is that you'll go over the 50k word mark!

I'm not doing it this year, but I'll root for you!

Good luck on the 50K for Nano. I'll be right there with you...assuming my WIP is completed on schedule.
