I am a WINNER!
Okay, so I admit. I am a bit weird at times and I tend to do some really crazy things. However, this year I thought I would challenge myself and write a novel in the month of November in my limited spare time. I cannot believe how rewarded I felt when it was all over, what a challenge.
To answer a few of the frequently asked questions.
Will you let anyone read it? Sadly, no.
How long did it take you to write? About an hour each day. Weekends I spent more time writing.
What do you plan to do now that you are done? I won’t publish it, I just wanted the thrill of doing something difficult.

Hi Lisa,
Yeehah, congrats on your novel! The NaNoWriMo badge caught my eye because we, too, participated in this writing fest. In our case, rather than being written by one person, 3 faculty and about 25 students (some wrote twice) signed up for a chapter a night. All Roads Lead to Guatemala is being printed for each of the authors plus a copy or two for the library. I was one of the 3 teachers and thoroughly enjoyed the challenge of having to write in the same vein as the story begun by the students. Sure got my brain in another place
Cheers, Laurie
