Daily Introduction Thread: Day One

[writingvixen.livejournal.com]

Hi guys! This is your NaNoWriMo is officially 10 days away. (don't shoot the messenger) With that, I give you the Daily Introduction Thread. We will be posting these for exactly two weeks, woo, so feel free to take your time and don't all clamor on the first one (or do, I don't care). What you do is post who you are, your name, your story idea, genre, etc, as well as your mother's maiden name and social sec - just kidding. :) (or am I?)

Have fun with it. NaNoWriMo is one part the challenge, but another very large part, and the reason we suspect so many of you are here for, is the community. We are here to form this community and my goal is to make sure that the relationships and community that is formed during these two months last all year. (more on that to come). So get to know each other and yourself and make some new friends!

Hello, I'm Traci.
I used to be a pretty big writer. I'm talking writing all the time. I did a lot of writing in high school and into my first year or two of college. I had big dreams of doing the publishing thing but then I got busy, life got in the way. I stopped writing.

I'm slowly finding my way back. I've written up a children's book I'm pursing publication on but we'll see how that goes. Waiting to hear back from agent's but I realize it may or may not happen! Anyway, Nano for me is hopefully a way to push me, get me back into my creative juices. I tried it last year but I wasn't very prepared. I'm trying to motivate myself to get back into the groove. I just need to find that push again! I'll be working on a YA novel again this year. I say again because I tried last year but I didn't come close to finishing!
