NaNoWriMo

No, it's not a chant, a mantra, or the name of a new disease. It's what will consume my life for the month of November! As many of you know, last year I discovered a book called "No Plot! No Problem!" and I got really excited. I have always wanted to write a book, have started many times, but never finished. This book seemed like exactly what I needed. The problem was that I discovered the book just before I left for France, and couldn't dedicate any time to it. So....I brought it with me and read it earlier this year. NaNoWriMo stands for "National Novel Writer's Month," and November is the designated month. So........I've got a couple of friends on-board and we are going to do it!!!!!!! We are going to write a novel in a month. What do you think? Think I can do it? We are encouraged to have friends, family, and perfect strangers take bets out on whether we'll finish or not as a motivation tactic. Any takers? The word is out....I'm taking bets!!!!
