I’ve never done NaNoWriMo in the past because November is one of my busiest months of the year. My busiest is actually August and September with school starting. And then it’s November. But this year, I’m so determined to get my current writing project done. I’m half way through and I think NaNo can push me over the edge.
On top of doing NaNo, I’m going to be giving out prizes at the end of the month to celebrate my success! (If you’re an Orange County public school teacher, I know you’re laughing over that one right now).
So after I pass my 25% mark, I’ll be giving away a book, then at the 50% mark, then the 75% mark. If I make it to the 100% mark, I’ll give away 5 books total. So we’ll see what happens by Dec. 1st and how many books I’ll be giving away to my amazing blogger buddies!
You can check my side bar on the right to see how I’m progressing. Yeah, right now I’m at the big fat ZERO mark.
I probably won’t be posting much since I’ll be writing my butt off. But if you get a chance, send me good wishes, cyber chocolate and coffee. I’ll need them.
Good for you to aim high! I’ll be cheering you on. I know you can do it.
No time like the present! Good for you!
Good luck! And that’s pretty awesome to give away prizes for completing certain marks.
And just remember, it’s a few words a day. You can do it. 🙂
Good luck!!! And email me if you need anything! 😀
I think that is a great way to celebrate. Here’s to hitting that 100%!!! Best of luck!
Not sure what Nano is, aren’t they little robots?
I wish you goodluck. I have also decided to do NaNoWriMo as well. Should update my blog on my own progress so far. Then again prepping and actual month is different. Daily word wars is huge encouragement. 😀
Andrea- thank you!
Angela- yes! I’m really big about celebrating the little things. Because actually they are big. Small steps make big moments.
Beth- Thanks! Hopefully I have something for you to look at before spring. !!!!!
Tony- I know, writers are just weird. Me especially!
Angelica- thanks! I’m going to need all the luck I can get. I think I need to not try to be super teacher, super mom, super wife, and all that for a month and just get this wip done!
Sending lots of chocolate and coffee your way. Good luck Christina!
You go girl! I’m doing NaNo this year too. I’ll see you in NaNo-land! :0)
Good luck with NaNoWriMo! 🙂 You can do it.
I’m thinking the fiction writer’s blogosphere is going to be very quiet over the next month. 😉
Good luck on finishing your project, Christina!
Good luck, Christina! Keep us posted when you can.
Good luck. You can do it. 🙂
I’ve never done NaNo, but some day I will.
Good luck!
What a great idea! I’ll be checking in to see what books you’ll giveaway (loves me some books!).
Good luck on NaNo.
Best of luck! The giveaway is a great idea; I haven’t seen anything like it for NaNo.
I hope it’s going well for you!
