It took me five (small) chapters, but I got my MC sent ahead into the future...and as the title says there is no turning back. The only ones that know that at present are the villain and me. I'm still short of the quota for five days, but not as far short as I was this morning. LOL! I'm gaining! I cut the deficit in half today. The government ought to hire me!
Where else but in daycare and at NaNo could people discuss imaginary beings with such compassion for one another?
I'm delighted that you came back to have a go at it again this year. This is my first year. I listened to others last year as they shared on their personal journals. I remember thinking at that time, "I wouldn't be able to write that many words for fiction." Yet, here I am. It's going to take at least that many words to tell this story. I'm just hoping I get them all up and out before Nov 30. I saw on the home page tonight we can get a free galley proof from one of the sponsors if we win. I'd like that.
Nanowrimo is the opposite of boredom and loneliness. It's a bit overwhelming and extremely friendly and loving. Gush!
October was a rough month for me, too. There's a lot to be said for hanging in there!
Congrats to you on last year. This year you will be a double winner!
