Failure

Well, in case it's not painfully obvious, I have officially failed both NaNoWriMo and NaBloPoMo. It's sad, but true. I went for far too much at at once. I was spending every moment glued to my keyboard, and stressing out as I fell further and further behind. In the end, I decided the endeavors weren't worth my sanity, especially when the only reward was my own self-satisfaction. Frankly, I think sanity is much more valuable commodity.

So, now that I've stopped having anxiety attacks every time I approach my laptop, I will try to enjoy my blogging once again. Perhaps next year I will try to commit creative suicide once again with either NaBloPoMo or NaNoWriMo.

Now, back to our regularly scheduled insanity......

I quit NaNoWriMo on Nov. 2. I've stuck with NaBloPoMo despite the move. AND I made a calender. I'm INSANE.

I sometimes wish I would have quit, but with only a few days to go, I guess I'm in for the duration.

You didn't fail if it got you going on a great idea!

I am past the 50,000 word count but was so engrossed that I DIDN'T UPLOAD my manuscript in time for the count. Doh!

Who cares - I'm almost done.

I like that it's a great impetus!
