This time of year is also when I photograph the Huntsville Heart Walk and family/portrait sessions get booked pretty fast with the holidays getting closer and graduation (I live in a college town).
And on top of ALL that, for the first time I have decided to participate in NaNoWriMo. What is that?
It is national novel writing month! Yes, you attempt to write a novel in a month...well the collective goal seems to be to reach 50,000 words. (note: my first fantasy manuscript with my agent right now is at 90,000 words).
So, that is approximately 1700 words a day. The whole month.
I am blogging about this so you can hold me accountable. This month is crazy and I have a full time job and own a business - yet I still do this ol' writing thing because I love it. Why not use it to get my third installment of my series going?
I'd like to reach the 50,000 word goal - but really I just want to write...everyday. Even if its 306 words or 5100 words (wouldn't that be fantastic?!) I just want to write everyday...and hopefully not have my head explode.
So friends, check on me throughout the month...please. Pretty please. Make sure I am keeping my sanity (or what I have left of it).
Example: today I got in 2161 words. Whoohoo!
Hopefully I can keep this up! Anyone else participating in NaNoWriMo?
