NaNoWriMo :: NaNoWriMo Blog

This was my second year participating in NaNoWriMo. Last year I was only able to get to 10,000 words; this year I was determined to reach 50,000 no matter what. I didn't want to wait another year to try again. I work out full time and am a mother and a wife to a middle school science teacher, so life is a bit hectic in my house. I was only able to write maybe three days a week, but I made the most of those days. By 2am on the last day, I reached over 51,000 words. :) For me, it was just sheer determination.
