Out with November

November 30, 2008 at 11:47 pm (NaNoWriMo)

Am done! 53,246 words, and this year I even wrote a proper ending. Well, proper is debatable. Angst over the rewrite to start shortly…

But right now–hurray! I want champagne.

    Whoo-hoo! Can’t offer champagne from here, but I’ll toast you with my day’s first tea!

    Yay! You did it up right. Got your fifty thou AND finished the book. That’s awesome. I raise my coffee cup to you.

    Wow, and all I did in November (besides journaling and recovering from agent rejections) was come up with the idea for my next novel. I salute you!

    You amaze me. For me: maybe next year. I got farther than I thought I would.

    Yippee Kaiiay!

    I got to 53k, but not done. Closer to done than any of the previous years, though (probably because I’m kind of finishing book 2, although I like to think of it as a sequel.)

    I too am thinking of revising. It’s funny how writing a mess like nano helps you get clear on what needs to be there. Or maybe it’s 3 years of nano on the same project.

    Have some chocolate and celebrate!

    Many congratulations!!! You continually inspire me.

    Raising a toast to you (it happens to be hot tea, but let’s pretend it’s champagne).
