Well Happy June to you all. This year has already brought more changes to my life than I ever dreamed possible. Unfortunately the economy caught up with me and I lost my job. I'm trying to look at this as an opportunity however, to finally get around to finishing one of the many novels I've been working on for the past couple of years.
In order to motivate myself even more, I've joined Camp NaNoWriMo for the month of June. NaNoWriMo stands for National Novel Writing Month which is officially in November. You have one month to write a 50,000 word novel from scratch. They've had such success that they've added two Camp's this summer, one in June and one in August with the same goal in mind.
The website is great because it puts you in touch with other writers and helps to keep you motivated and accountable. I just uploaded my first word count and at only 1,300 words so far, I've got quite a ways to go. But, I have to say, I'm really looking forward to it.
As I get further along, I hope to be able to share my writing experiences with you and hopefully you will feel free to share with me as well. I feel as though writing is an art in which you never stop learning.
Happy Writing.
Looking forward to following your journey!
