nanowrimo_lj | Weekly Mod Note:

Gooooooooooooood morning!

Okay, nobody panic, but I just have to say this: The next mod note I write will be NaNotime.

Less than a week people, less than a week. I hope you're ready! (Cause I'm not!)

I hope that you're enjoying this pre-nano time. It's always filled with so much excitement and hope for the future! This is the time to feed off the excitement of your peers and get fired up, so that you can be ready to tackle that novel when it comes and fight for it! Woo hoo!

Just know this, and I mean every word, the very fact that you're even entering this endeavor tells me that you are a person of great courage and creativity. You are someone who isn't afraid to dream and dream big. I also think that you're a doer. And you will finish this novel, but in the case that you don't? In the case that life gets in the way and you just don't reach your goal: know this, you attempted. You entered the race. You went farther than all the people who just sit around their whole lives and wish they could live their dream. You chose to live it. Do not EVER forget that.

Live.
