It’s official. I am THE worst blogger in the history of bloggers. It’s just official.
But enough about that. I’m going to tell you what has kept me from blogging lately… Ever heard of NanoWrimo?? Well, you should google it. Hehe. I’m just kidding. NanoWrimo stands for NAtional NOvelist’s WRIting MOnth. Got it? Good. The purpose of NANOWRIMO is this:
You sign up on this website where you commit to attempting to write 50,000 words in one month. ONE month. What month? November. I know right? There’s that month that’s full of Thanksgiving prep and all that jazz… And in the midst of that, they want you to try to write 50, STINKIN’000 words. And no, that is NOT a typo, you do have to try to write fifty thousand. Guess what? I did it. You heard right. I wrote fifty thousand words in 17 days actually. This was my first year trying it out ( I did the jr. version last year, the one where you can SET your word goal) and I did it. In 17 days… WOW.
I had to write approximately.. uhm… 3,000 words a day? I did that because I was going to be gone for a week in the end of November celebrating Thanksgiving with my cousins and family. But I did it! And I even had a few days to rest before going off on vacation. What did I write exactly? Ah… WELL… I wrote an original story about a kid named Eugene Catzapelli. Says a lot, doesn’t it? I entitled it:
The Diary of an Average Superhero…
Yurp. That’s it! I haven’t written the ending yet, but I like where it’s heading. It took some really unexpected turns… Any ways. I’ll tell more about that laters. In the mean time, enjoy your Christmas!!! Bye!
