Today I embarked on a goal that seems a little too big for me. But, the challenge was so inviting I couldn’t resist. The project is called National Novel Writing Month. Over 150,000 participants signed up for this challenge with me. The goal is to write 50,000 words in one month - November 1st to November 30th. It’s a big deal in the novel writing world.
Today was the first day of NaNoWriMo and I wrote 2,370 words! I’m ahead of the goal of 1,667 words a day. I’m off to a great start and feeling great. I know not every day will go as well as this one, but I’m confident I can do it! Those of you natural encouragers, I’ll take any encouragement you want to send my way. Any of you willing to pray for my creativity to be in full force and my commitment to stay the course, I’ll take it!
On a separate note, I want to let all of you know that my new and professionally updated website should be up and running by the end of the month. I hope all of you will visit it and sign up to receive my monthly blog.
Hope each of you have a great Thanksgiving. I’m looking foward to the turkey and fixings and especially the pumpkin pie!
Much love, Melony

I’m writing my first for the first time w/nanowrimo. You can follow me here…http://twitter.com/motivprocrast I’m finding it difficult to keep the same level of intensity from day to day b/c the story has already become stale to me. No preplanning or anything. We’ll see. I’ve failed two days and have success two days: http://wp.me/pGUOi-O I’m also blogging about it! I wish everyone luck.
