November is National Novel Writing Month
AKA
NaNoWriMo
The goal:
50,000 words in thirty days.
It's supposed to be fast.
It's supposed to be messy.
It's supposed to leave you with a rough draft to finish up and polish later.
Because of my work schedule, I couldn't write everyday,
which left the bulk of the writing on the weekends.
But,
My family kindly let me sequester myself at my desk and write,
and on the last day of the month, I not only hit my goal of
50,000 words, I actually exceeded it with a total of...
Drum roll, please!
53,645.
And believe it or not,
although it's rough to look at right now,
I think it's going to be a lot of fun to polish.
And now, back to your regularly scheduled programming.
