the end

"Through storm and sun, you traversed the noveling seas. Pitted against a merciless deadline and fighting hordes of distractions, you persevered. You launched yourself bravely into Week One, sailed through the churning waters of Week Two, skirted the mutinous shoals of Weeks Three and Four, and now have landed, victorious, in a place that few adventurers ever see.

We congratulate you on your hard work, salute your discipline and follow-through, and celebrate your imagination.

You did something amazing this month, novelist. We couldn't be prouder."



I wrote a novel this month, for those of you who were not aware :P
I spent many nights up till eleven or later to reach my word goal of the day. Last week i was really behind and about ready to give up, but i didn't. The end goal was 50,000 words and i made it tonight at about 10:30. ive finished my first novel :]
It might not be very good, but now i have to go back and edit all the typos and stuff. then i'll see who wants to read it and email it out to people...
It was fun. maybe almost completely pointless but it was fun.

Now i have to turn my "inner editor" back on and start caring when i make grammatical mistakes and spell words wrong until next year xD

I JUST WROTE A NOVEL :D
