I will be victorious

The day after tomorrow, while children across the country are still buzzing from the sugar high that is about to hit them after they have collected their loot and sorted it out on living room rugs in homes all over the US, I will be buzzing for a whole different reason. I decided to participate in National Novel Writing Month. I feel as though I am a glutton for punishment. I work, I volunteer, I am involved in a lot of things that take up a lot of my time, and I have a social life. All of these things could easily stand in my way of finishing a 50k+ word novel. I have been wanting to write a novel for years, but something always gets in the way. That something is usually my own insecurities and the constant editor whispering lies and less than helpful words into my head. But this year I will do my best to cross the finish line victorious!

I will try to share my progress and even throw out some suggestions and ask for opinions and maybe even some feedback along the way. So stay tuned for updates as this creative sprint begins November 1st.

Also, any tips, tricks or ideas/inspiration are always welcome! Please feel free to direct them my way!
