I know it's been quite some time since I last wrote, and a lot has changed since my last post, and now I'm back. Last year some of you were aware that I had taken on the challenge of participating in NaNoWriMo. It is a non-profit that encourages creativity and literary abandonment by asking its participants to write a 50,000 word novel in a month's time. I, sadly, did not complete the challenge. This year I am now in a different place, have an incredible source of support, and am determined to see it through to the end. I'm also excited to say that I have a local friend and an out-of-town friend that are also up for the challenge which will help make things more exciting and help to hold me more accountable! I encourage any one else out there who's up for the challenge to join in on the fun. You can write about anything from squirrels plotting to take over the neighborhood to a young boy's quest to be the best ping pong player in the world; so long as you reach 50,000 words! There will be organized writing sessions with other NaNoWriMos in the area to help keep the excitement alive and allow for some healthy competition.
I'll be here in between classes, work, homework, and NaNo-ing to keep you posted on my progress.
