Wevmax’s Continuing NanoWriMo Blog!

Started with NaNoWriMo adventure in 2007… everything else in 2008!!

And the NaNoWriMo count so far… 24,708!

Posted by wevmax on November 20, 2007

I am so close to half-way that I can smell it! I will probably work on it at work, and it shouldn’t be hard at all. Of course I’m still behind, but for someone who has never written a book before 25,000 words is an accomplishment (albeit a small one… but baby steps… just have to remember baby steps!).

I went to my local write-in yesterday where only two other people showed up yesterday. I guess this was because officially there wasn’t going to be a meeting, but it was great that we were able to talk more in-depth about our stories and how to get there rather than the larger groups where there are too many conversations going on at once. I’m trying to remember their names (i’m so bad with names), I know Sandy because she was there from our first meeting and then there was…. aaaaahhhh… well, her business card says Ashley Ladd… but even she told me that is just her writing alias… so let’s call her Ashley though I know that this is going to kill me for the rest of the day! lol.

This is Ashley’s first attempt at NaNoWriMo (just like me) so she is definitely a kindered spirit… though a much better prepared one! Her and Sandy were already in their mid 30’s, but I digress.  I haven’t checked out her page yet, but for any of you interested she is at www.ashleyladd.com, www.ellorascave.com, and has apparently already plublished at www.newconceptspublishing.com. Go Ashley!

Ok… i’m getting back to work! :-)

  1. You are too kind.

    It was great to chat with you and Sandy last night about writing and NaNo.

    25,000 words is GREAT! You’re doing wonderful so keep up the great work.

    It would be great if this group would still meet once a month or so even after NaNo, but that’s up to everyone. It’s nice to get together with other writers, especially in person like we have been.

    I hope you’ll let us read your book when you’re done.

    By the way, I’m really Elaine. Don’t worry, I didn’t remember Sandy’s name at first, either.

    Keep up the good work! See you Monday night if not before. Same bat time, same bat channel.
