I Wasn't Going To...

Pink Think: "You don't start out writing good stuff. You start out writing crap and thinking it's good stuff, and then gradually you get better at it. That's why I say one of the most valuable traits is persistence." - Octavia Butler
...but I opened a file in the wee early morning hours of November first and wrote 1,687 words towards a new novel.

I love me a crazy challenge.

Let the madness begin!

Are YOU NaNoWriMo'ing? Be my buddy! I'm "Pink Ink".

Cheers to you! I wasn't sure if I was doing nanowrimo either, but I ended up writing a few hundred words of a new novel yesterday so I'm already behind, but at least I stared. I'll see how far I can get.

Good luck!

This is on my to do list, but this isn't the year.

I am not participating, but I wish you good luck just the same.

May you wind up with enough of a novel that you can flesh out and meaty up later on.

Hey, good job on NaNoWriMo! It's a crazy challenge worthy of the Lovely Blog Award I just gave you, because what's more lovely than pink ink? Marsha Ward has the rules on her blog... (I only did five awards, even though I was supposed to do 15! That was just so overwhelming, and who could compare to you, anyway?) Here are Marsha's rules: http://marshaward.blogspot.com/2011/11/15-lovely-blogs-because-i-received-blog.html
Have fun, if you want to do it! You don't have to.
Hey, the email I had for you quit going through. I remember you had a new manuscript last spring. How's that one going? I'd love to read it. Have you ever thought of e-publishing "Ghost Moon?" I LOVE that book! You've got to get it out there for your other future fans!

Yay, you go, you!!! May the words flow and flow and flow!

I'm not doing it this year...technically I did my NaNo back in August. I don't think my poor family would survive another writing frenzy! :)

Best of luck! Sending you good writing vibes!
