It's National Novel Writing Month and to say the least this is an experience like no other. The whole idea is to finish a complete 50, 000 word novel in one month(November), without going back to review your work or editing anything you've already written. That is the hardest part for me.
I started off with a blank slate. The only thing I really did research on was the location or the setting for which the novel was going to take place . I also did some basic research on google about different creatures that go bump in the night. I had no idea what the story was going to be about and to be honest, I still don't, but I like the challenge. So far, it's been going smoothly. I have all these ideas in my head now about each character and where I want to take them on this journey. This book will be called, Heart of Ice. Although I made a book cover, I am unsure whether or not I will be seeking publication for this particular novel. I'm just going to enjoy the ride and see where this brand new world takes me. Are you participating in NaNoWriMo?

Good luck to you too, Heather. I might end up cheating too. Not sure how much longer I can ignore the urge to go back and edit or add something I think would be vital to the story line, but that'll be our little secret lol
