Thirty-day Challenge update

My current thirty-day challenge is going pretty well. I spent all last week working at Leslie's house, keeping her kitties company while she was gone... that was perhaps a little lazy, but it did keep me out of the house for more than 2 hours at a time, and I did get a fair amount of work done in the process, so I'm going to call it an overall win.

It's interesting that it was easier for me to be creative about my work spots when I didn't have a car... weird, I guess. But hey, I'm weird.

It's September now, and I'm super excited because I just found out I'll be co-ML (Municipal Liaison) for my region for NaNoWriMo in November. I seriously love NaNo. I was scared of it at first, because I wasn't sure I could write 50,000 words in 30 days. But, I think that's the point. You're supposed to push yourself ... and no one is going to point and laugh at you if you don't reach the goal. But you might surprise yourself.

The first year of NaNo I wrote 30,000 words. I've won it twice since then. And a couple of times in between I fell short. But that's ok! The point is to get out there and give it your best shot.

And now, this year, I get to be a cheerleader for others who are writing, too! I can't wait!
