It's official: I've lost my mind. Don't know what in the hell possessed me to think that I could actually do this, but I've let my online friends talk me into doing NaNo this month....three days after it's started.
For those who aren't familiar...and unless you're a writer, you aren't....National Novel Writing Month...or NaNoWriMo, as it's more informally called, is one of the largest events of the year. Each November, writers gear up to partake in 'Thirty Days and Nights of Literary Abandon'. Basically, this means beginning at 12:01am November 1st, you have thirty days in which to write a 50,000 word novel. This work must be uploaded and validated on their website no later than 11:59pm on November 30th, in order for you to win.
What's the prize, you ask? Personal satisfaction, and bragging rights. I'll never make it. But I'm committed now, and I'm sure gonna try!
