About NaNoWriMo...

I have never really finished anything I've started on that thing. I've never taken part in the community aspect. I've never really written anything I'd consider stellar (except for my first one, and that was more through sheer momentum of having reached the 30K mark on a story for the first time rather than anything inherent to the event).

Nanowrimo is a good motivational tool to set youself the goal of writing 50K in a month, but it isn't going to write those 50K words for you, if you know what I mean. I think I may do another 'meta-nano' like I did (or attempted to do) last year.

script frenzy 2007 winner graphicWhew!

Just under the wire, but I made it! I have now officially reached the target on one of these internet writing marathon thingummies. While there were weeks of inactivity and times when I was forced to work on other things, I was able to put some good -- but mostly crap -- words to a page, and reach the 20,000 goal.

I'm still not satisfied, however, because the story isn't finished. No, try as I did, the words 'FADE OUT. THE END' were not in my script; in fact, there is a really long way to go.
