Writing is hard,...I would...if I had the money. :P<br /><br />Writing is hard, but soooo rewarding in the end. I'm not doing NaNo. I did Camp last July, and still need to edit that novel...which really needs to be done before I can write the second book in the trilogy which is (most likely) my next project.Morgan Hunekehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11210379865466790340noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3445138433367622139.post-42215632700088504282015-11-12T08:01:10.625-06:002015-11-12T08:01:10.625-06:00Hum... setting something on fire.

Definitely keep pushing through and you'll get there! :)<br />I'm not doing Nano, but I love reading all the discussion about it and it's really inspired me to get a bunch of writing done lately! I'm horrible at trying to go back and edit and make every little detail perfect, but I'm really trying to break away from this habit and just get my first draft DONE!

That is awesome how fast your going! <br />NaNo is going well for me, I'm just barely able to scrape by with 1.667 words a day, but that's alright with me. =) My current word count is 15.000 words. My plot ran away from me as well, so I'm having trouble getting back on track, but am getting there. *Cough* I haven't stayed up to midnight at all. I think my body automatically falls asleep at 11:30, so there's no chance for late night writing. I think I'm the oddball of the writing community in that respect. <br />Thanks for the update! I always love hearing about your writing! <br /> -Mikayla-Mikayla Holmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11860338066364366978noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3445138433367622139.post-68925714516262978272015-11-09T15:32:16.599-06:002015-11-09T15:32:16.599-06:00Haha!
