Thank God, It's Over!

It's over. NaNoWriMo is over. And I'm a winner!
Yeah, I padded by adding a story that was unrelated. Rich says he will keep me honest next year. I sure hope so! But in the mean time, it's good not to have to angst over words not written. It's good to just let go, and let the words just flow. And I think we may have inspired others to join.

Thenapanacea1 started a novel--a REAL novel, not a NaNoWrimo novel, although it started out that way.

Maladamalada was inspired to write 3500 words in about 4 hours.

Remus finished his novel, but got a bleeding ulcer because of it. He won't be returning next year. But he is going to try to get published.

I hope to get all my Live Journal friends involved in it next year. I bet we all have some novels in us. Join us?

Rich says he will keep me honest next year.

You bet I will. And it's for your own good, too! :b

Next year, we'll need to be each others cheerleading squad, because I plan to be right there toiling away with you - a slave to the keyboard, if you will. It's been fascinating watching you go though this, now I want to see it from the other side.

Congratulations, Edie!

Quit that! Sheesh...

It might be an a.dbs novel - depends on where I am in my story. I also have an idea for a sword & sorcery fantasy novel that's been kicking around my head for the past 10 years. Have characters, a plot, and an outline even.

[shrug] We'll have to see how it goes this year. I won't start worrrying about NaNo until about August or September of next year.

Sword and Socery sorta fing, eh? Now that would be fun to write, I suppose. My problem is that I have a hell of a time coming up with a plot. Well, I have a year, and I know that fuzzy is REALLY good at plot development, so I'll be pestering him for help again.

"Building a Mystery", indeed.
