NANO Winner!

I didn’t think I was going to participate in NaNo (National Novel Writing Month to the uninitiated) this year, but since I’m the most competitive person I know, I did it anyway. Finished up today, the last day possible with 100 words to spare.

Lessons learned:

  1. I CAN write over 4000 words per day for four days straight to catch up.

  2. I still have stories inside my head, pushing to get out.

  3. The more I write, the more stories I have.

So I’m not sure if anyone would call writers (or anyone else during 2020) “mentally healthy” anymore, but if you won’t keep me company, the voices in my head certainly will. :)

I hope to share FEEDERS with you soon… after I finish writing it (because 50k does not a novel make) and after a good revision.

Happy holidays!
