NaNoWriMo

Yep, I'm doing it! What is NaNoWriMo? That's a good question!
It's National Novel Writing Month, sponsored by a nonprofit organization. Basically, it's just a way to motivate you to write. You sign up for a free account and during November, you write 50,000 words. I'm not sure if I really have the time, but hey, why not attempt it? I started today and I'm really excited about it! If you can do it, they send you a certificate showing that you did it.
I decided to go for something fun, maybe not something for publication but a project just to get me writing. I'm writing a YA based on Jane Austen's "Sense and Sensibility," or at least inspired by her plot.
Wish me luck! Here's the link to NaNoWriMo: nanowrimo.org.
My current word count: 550.
