Well, it's August and July Camp NaNoWriMo is officially over. To be honest, I'm a little depressed now that it's over. I was so motivated to write, and now I'm coming off that high (and still recovering from Disneyland) and now I just feel tired. But at the same time, I'm ready to get… Continue reading Camp NaNo: The Finale

Tomorrow is July 1st! That means that it's time to start Camp NaNoWriMo! Whoo-hoo! Here's the deal- I work 9 days in July, and I've set myself a goal of 25,000 words.

And writing that last sentence is when all your hard work pays off and you're… Continue reading The First Draft
