So, with 95-ish minutes left on the clock, I think it’s fair to say that I won’t be surpassing the goal of 50,000 words this time around. Two wins, three…well, non-wins in five years. I’m very proud of my 36K words so far and I’m continuing my project. My wife and I each now expect to pass 50K by New Year’s Day.
I owe a great debt of gratitude toward the fine folks at Letters of Light and the NanoWrimo Challenge. They do amazing work, and they inspire creativity in all of us.
If you’re like me and you’re feeling a little down about not meeting the challenge, just remember that you had 0 words toward this project a mere 30 days ago. Now look at you! I hope all of you work to accomplish your story-telling dreams!

You have the right attitude. Any words are better than zero words. Congrats on your success so far and good luck with finishing your manuscript!

Spoiler for me! I didn’t try nanowrimo this year!!! LOL! I am working retail right now and trying to mix Black Friday madness and writing? Um no thank you. Meh, November is just a month. There’s no rule that says I can’t write in January aka the end of holiday shopping season. 🙂
