"The only limit to our realization of

active faith."
~Franklin D. Roosevelt
I have been debating whether or not I should enter
the NaNoWriMo contest again this year. It is a month long writing contest
where a writer starts a book and finishes it (minimum 50K words) in exactly a
month. The month of November, to be exact. That is precisely where
they get the crazy name from. NAtional NOvel WRIting MOnth. Check it out on line if
you wish. This is the link.
Last year I joined the party and I even finished my
novel. It was my fifth complete novel that year. (You can find a little blurb about it on the OtherProjects Page. It is aptly documented
under the number five heading.)
I had assumed it would be a lot easier than my
contest I do each year to write a whole novel in 3 days. After all, I had been writing large chunks of
words for 10 months prior to that and thought 50 thousand words would be a
piece of cake.
Well ... It wasn't.
The whole point behind the month long contest is build
a new habit.
