I WILL FINISH MY NOVEL THIS MONTH.
On this first day of November and the kick-off of NaNoWriMo,
I challenge myself not to write an entire 50,000 word novel in a month,
but just to finish the 80,000+ words I have struggled with for two years.
I will shift my priorites and just GET IT DONE. It can suck. That’s okay.
I can’t edit and rewrite until I have something to edit and rewrite.
No one else will treat my writing as anything but a hobby unless I take the lead.
It’s not some cute little thing I do between loads of laundry. Well, actually, it is.
That needs to change if I ever want to be published.
Yes, I understand bloggers have jumped on this bandwagon and cooked up NaBloPoMo.
I’m not going to write a blog post a day.
In fact, I’m going to blog LESS so I can focus on the book.
That is all.
You go girl! We'll be waiting for the next Stephanie Meyer success story … soccer-mom-turned-famous-novelist.
Congrats!! I know you can do it!

Holy cow what a strange post for you to write today. Today, is the first day I will sit down nightly to begin my book. I'm going at it like a night time job for the next 90 days and see what happens. Maybe we could be each other's cheer leaders?! Good luck!!!

Good luck!

Get cracking woman! I'm all ready to hit Barnes & Noble (or Amazon) to go pick up your book. Then, of course, I will send it to you sign and send back.
Okay, if you insist, I'll even include the return postage.
In my DREAMS! But thanks. I actually skipped soccer practice this evening to write (bad soccer mom but good writer).
Good luck to you. Hmm… It's 8:30 here. I hope YOU are writing. Let me know anytime you need some encouragement or a kick in the a$$.
Oh Gigi, You totally know how to make a girl feel good. If (no WHEN) I ever finish, and IF any crazy publisher signs me, OF COURSE I'll send you a copy for being so awesome.
Good luck! I'm doing both things, too, writing more (nanowrimo) and blogging less 🙂 See you in a month!
Good luck, hun 🙂
Looking forward to see how it turns out!

I think it is awesome that you are buckling down to get it done. I wish you the best!!!!
