Win My NanoWriMo Finally

At last…

…after three long and miserable weeks, the word count exceeded 50K and I finished my novel. What an experience. It was truly amazing despite all the kicking and screaming of excuses I made along the way to not write.

To Chris, the guy who’s behind all this madness, a big THANK YOU!

Do I have plan for the next year nanoing? Arrgggh…I don’t want to think about it, yet. I need to take a break in December. I still have my next huge task ahead and I’ll write about it in my blog.

Until then, keep writing.

Yay!

My quest to write my 50K novel in one month at NaNoWriMo is going so smoothly I’m starting to feel a bit queasy. So far so good. Knock on wood. For the first week I was stumbling trying to find my writing rhythm. The story went so damn slow I almost gave up. But this is the best thing being a NaNoWriMo participant: my problem or issue, whatever I call it, is not unique. There is nothing special about what I have been experiencing during the first week of writing.

Practically everyone experiences the same problem—slow in starting to write, getting mad at their characters, not feeling like writing—let alone finishing to the end line of 50K words at the end of November. And everybody can vent their issues in the NaNoWriMo forum and get a response.

Horaaay!!

Yay! I completed the third revision of my novel and it’s now ready for the next stage. I’m just so excited I finally got it done. And it couldn’t be better timing for my next project—Nanoing on November, 1 – 30.

What? Wait a minute! Did I just say that? Nanoing on Nov. 1? When I don’t even have a clue of what should my next plot is about? Am I going insane?
