NaNoWriMo Rocks!
2500 words in one night baby! Oh yeah, I rock! NaNoWriMo rocks! Everybody rocks!
Can you tell I’m in a mood?
You’d think being dumped by a friend, and a long term boyfriend, a cancer ridden nephew, the distinct chance my state will be run by a republican next year and a miserable job would all equal depression… but you’d be wrong!
None of that matters in the least. Why you ask? Because I can WRITE! I know, I know, I can write whenever I want. Why is this such a big deal, if I was a real writer I wouldn’t wait till November to really let go-blah, blah, blah.
NaNoWriMo is different. The idea of the chill November air crackling with ideas as tens of thousands sit down at the computer/typewriter/notebook. It feels so good knowing a thousand others are struggling with the plotline, one dimensional characters and bland settings, all while you are too. It just feels… right.
This is my month people, my time. NO ONE will come between my and my book.
Last year I didn’t finish because I let life get in the way. Now, that is not going to happen. As far as I am concerned, life doesn’t exist until December.
