We’re 2 weeks into NaNoWriMo! I just unlocked the “14” badge for updating my word could 14 days in a row. (See my daily word counts here.) Tomorrow marks the NaNo half-way point. Huzzah!

I’m officially a winner of NaNoWriMo 2023! That’s right. I hit 50,000 words around 11:00 pm this evening. I had intended to take the day off and give myself a creative break.

To celebrate, I took another mini puzzle break. As I mentioned before, I have banned myself from working on larger puzzles until after I hit 25,000 words. Motivation to … More Movin’ Right Along: Mini NaNoWriMo Update

NaNosomnia is where you try to go to bed at a reasonable hour because you have reached that age where you can no longer function without at least 6 solid hours of sleep and since you wake up at … More NaNosomnia
NaNoWriMo 2023 officially began at 12:00 am November 1. And I *almost* started in a deficit. To backtrack a bit, I had intended to do Preptober. I had a spark. I wrote a post about it. I attended a handful of Leslye Penelope’s Preptober sessions early in the month (she recorded all of them, which … More And We’re Off—NaNoWriMo 2023
