Nano.


It is November 29, 2009 and I have officially reached 50,507 words! I did it.
I started nine days late and finished a day early. This was no easy task, but every second, minute, and hour that I spent on this computer was worth it. Many prayers were installed while writing and it wouldn't have been possible without them *God is good*

Now the editing process. I think I will take a weeks break, to gather my thoughts and ideas. This has been such an overwhelming experience. Being lost for a month in my story, totally wrapped up in my characters, my mind constantly with them has built this joy inside of me. It has been one of the best times in my life.

So other Nanoers if you finished your novel... CONGRATULATIONS!! I know how difficult it must have been, but we did it. It is possible. Let's continue on our journey, I only see bright lights ahead for all of us!

And if you haven't reached the 50k marker, it doesn't matter. You still wrote something, a piece of a story that meant something to you, and that is more than many people have done or will ever do, so continue, don't stop till it is done!

Have a great day : )

That's awesome, especially since you started late. Editing: that's where the fun begins. Fun, agony. Same thing.
