And the crazy part: I haven’t written The End yet!
I’m still going.
But I’m putting this aside for now. I want to come back to it in a month or two with fresh eyes. But it will be finished!
Thanks to everyone who has cheered me on this month! I’ve had lots of well-wishes here on WordPress and Facebook!
Have you participated in Camp NaNoWriMo before?
Until the next headline, Laura Beth 🙂
Hot Shot Headlines 
Does NaNo go all year? I’ve never done it before, but I am interested.
I don’t think it goes all year, but that’s a good question. The “big” NaNoWriMo is every November. There are Camp sessions in April and July. I believe you can declare new projects at any time, though. I need to do more research. I’m glad you’re interested! It’s a lot of fun. This year will be my 10th anniversary!
Wow, I didn’t know it had been that long. I thought it was like 5 years old.
Yeah my first one was in 2012! I’ve done it every year except for 2015 and 2020.
Well done! 🙂
Thank you, sir!
