So this November I took on the NaNoWriMo National Writing Month Challenge
http://nanowrimo.org
What Is The NaNoWriMo National Writing Month Challenge?
The NaNoWriMo Challenge is a month long commitment to writing 50,000 words in the 30 days of November. National Novel Writing Month (NaNoWriMo) is a fun, seat-of-your-pants approach to creative writing. On November 1, participants begin working towards the goal of writing a 50,000-word novel by 11:59 PM on November 30. Valuing enthusiasm, determination, and a deadline, NaNoWriMo is for anyone who has ever thought about writing a novel.
After thinking long and hard about my thoughts and what it was that I was going to write… I decided to use my writing month of November to write in a more open minded manner. I wrote for my daily blog at https://365daysomethings.wordpress.com & 750words.com also within my daily writing commitment at www.750words.com all whilst writing for my NaNoWriMo National Writing Month Challenge.
What Did I Write About In My 30 Days Of The NaNoWriMo National Writing Challenge?
Well I wrote endless blogging thoughts, posts and challenges, I wrote poetry & began the long journey of editing & rewriting some of my earlier writings (some years old). I have been thinking of compiling my written works and maybe self publishing in the near future… there are also a few thoughts of writing a book/novel in the near future…
(no real plans yet).
So How Did I Go?
The NaNoWriMo Challenge is 50,000 words in the 30 days of November
& my total word count was
79,948 words.
Long Hours & an accomplishment that I am very proud of.
Was I Rewarded For My Efforts?
Yes Of Course A Certificate Was Given, it’s a piece of paper that I am proud of… writing that many words in 3 days was an accomplishment.
2019 will see me undertaking the NaNoWriMo Challenge once again.

Congratulations, Tanya. My outcome is a roughly constructed novel through which I changed character names, went down rabbit holes and journeyed along a precarious story line. In other words, it is a bit of a mess. It is VERY unfinished, but I am inspired to continue on with it and even edit somewhere down the road. Thanks for being my Nano-companion!
