Good morning, everyone!!!
And so it begins... 50,000 words... Thirty days...
Insanity... Author bonding... Isolation... ahh the list goes on and on.
A group of us had a NaNoWriMo prep session on Tuesday. This gave us a chance to decide what we were doing and allowed us to deep think on what we were doing before this actually began.
Tonight we have our first writing sprint to kick us off and get things going. An author friend of mine made a bunch of these as events on Facebook for the month to help keep us motivated and keep us going. In between if we are sitting down to write we can give a shout out to our writer pals and do a few more writing sprints :)
You know anything to help us survive the month of November :)
So tonight I go into writing mode after work, do the writing sprint between 7 and 8. Then a board meeting at 8. It is going to be a long day for certain :)
Why do I do this? Because it gets me back to a place in my writing where I need to be. I am horrible about allowing life's little issues to get me down and take me away from what I really need to be doing. It is hard to balance two full time jobs. But I'm at a place right now in life that it is possible to do without having to worry over anyone but me. I just need to get it going and maintain it. So hence the reason for NaNoWriMo this year. It will get me back on the track I need to be on and that's my end goal more than anything else this year. Getting back to the me I need to be.
Besides that, I love the writing chaos LOL.
So for anyone out there who's taking on this challenge and don't want to go it alone, hit me up, we'll get through this month together, I promise :)
Everyone have a lovely day!!!
Blessings to all!!!
