Do You Nanowrimo?

Lessa does - she did last year - and she did again this year.

Nanowrimo= National Novel Writers Month (or something like that). The idea is for a novel to be written in the 30 days of November. 30 days to write 50,000 words.

Last year Lessa's book was self-published - I helped edit it and it was a good read.

This year . . . this year she needs to send it off to some publishers. Oh, my, but what a good story line and good read. Sixty-three hours of writing and 67,359 words written. With some filling in and editing she will be right up there at about 75,000 words or so.

As soon as she gives me leave I will post a link to her story.

Until then . . . well, Lessa, I must say this: Job well done! I'm proud of you, kiddo.

Oh, and one more thing . . .

BOING!!!!*

* the sound of the needle on her word-ometer thingy reaching well beyond 100% on the dial . . . BOING!!!

BOING! *Grins* Thanks momma - and I really appreciate you printing it for me! *kicks own printer* bloody thing.

If someone wants the link, go ahead and post it - it'll remain up for comments until I get back from vacation, then I'll take it down so as not to lose "first publication rights" as some publishers are sticklers about that. I'm fine with it up right now because it's the unedited first draft. *L* So yeah - if anyone wants it, start here: http://reachthecolors.com/nano2004/archives/000457.html and follow the links along the top to go to the next chapters. Please comment on any/all entries - point out plot holes, etc. I'm a commentwhore. Love em I do. *Grins* Enjoy!
