I’m doing it!!

For many years I’ve been intrigued by the concept of NaNoWriMo, but haven’t dared to participate. Well, 2015 is the year that’s going to change!

For the very first time I’m going to do National Novel Writing Month and I’m beyond excited about it!

NaNo-2015-Participant-Banner

I’ve been working on a novel for quite some time, as many of you do know. It’s getting there, but I needed to get some distance from it to let it process a little, so for NaNoWriMo I’m going to write on my recent Horror project.

It’s something that came to me late one night and for some reason I just can’t get the idea out of my mind. And when an idea as strong as that shows up, I just have to roll with it. So in a way the timing was just perfect!

I’ve started some notes and plot planning already just to keep the fire blazing and when November 1st comes around then I’m all in and there will be no turning back.

I’m hoping to document as much as I can throughout the month of November so that I can share my NaNoWriMo experience with you guys when it’s all over and my story will have hit over 50,000 words.

There’s no if here. I’m going to do this and I’m going to win!

Are you participating this year?? Let me know so we can cheer on each other 🙂

Let’s do this!

Another Year by Christina de Vries – POEM

Another year has come and gone

A year with new smiles and new faces

Unexpected things came my way

Through adventures to new places

*

Faced some obstacles obstacles on my way

And next year I’ll try even harder

To reach my dreams and goals

As they will grow even larger

*

I am thankful for everything

The hurt and joy that came my way

It is all part of the same lesson

To enjoy every single day

*

This is not an ending

But a start of something new

Another year to make a change

To find that fire inside of you

*

Cry, laugh, whisper and listen

Don’t be afraid to face your fear

Make the most of 2015

I wish you all a Happy New Year!

*
