No, seriously. Check it out. http://www.nanowrimo.org/ Another thread about books inspired me to share. Its National Novel Writing Month. Its not too late to get started. A 50 K novel in 30 days. It can be done! Nope, its not done well.. its sheer writing abandon. All of you who have 'Write a novel" on your bucket lists.. here is your chance! BTW, if you want to be my writing buddy.. I am Rebecka on that site too :lol:

tried and failed. the writing was going good but life kept getting in the way. but everyone should try it next year (wish it wasn't in November) because it is a really great mental and creative exercise.

hahaha I've tried that for 2 years (didn't try this year too much personal stuff going on) and I always fail miserably! but both times it did motivate me to write more on the novel I've been working on for 2 years... :lol: So far I'm about 40k words after 2 years!

But we've been promised a peek of bb's book in February. ;)

I've written about 10 chapters of a novel, & since becoming a member here have incorporated a few SS concepts into the story. :D

I've always wanted to write stories. But I can only do small bits before I lose all track of what I was saying LOL. No amount of writing classes or editing has ever helped. I'm just not a focused person.

Now NON FICTION is not an issue. I can write essays and whatnot easily and directly because my outlines there work. Fiction I wander.

It's why my blog works. But as anyone can see, I cannot think of enough to say to write often LOL.
