NaNoWriMoNoMo
Its over. National Novel Writing Month 2006 is done. I did not win. I'm ok with that.
And what do I have to show for it? A little over 30K words and a pretty decent story.
Overall I am pleased with the NaNoWriMo experience. On the plus side I pushed myself to write at times when I didn't think I had anything in me and it lead me some interesting places. On the minus side I feel like I wrote a lot of filler that was "just words" to pump up my word count.
And just because NaNoWriMo is over doesn't mean my story is over. I plan to continue working on it until I have what I want out of it, which is a finished novel.
