NaNoWriMo = Complete

Phew, I have successfully completed my first (and most likely last) year of NaNoWriMo. I have written part of Fatal Mistakes almost every day this month. I’ve neglected other writing and I know I’ve neglected my school work in order to reach that 50,000 word goal.

The ideal of NaNoWriMo is to have a full novel written… but I can’t do that for this year’s NaNo. I’m out of ideas. I’ve been bullshitting the majority of Fatal Mistakes since Chapter 10. 

I’m at 73 pages (in Word) written in 12 point Times New Roman font. Word count: 50,057. 

There were times when I really wanted to just quit writing this damn thing and do something else but I persevered and I’m glad I wrote this story. Various incarnations of it have been circling in my head for the last two years. Ideas for this particular version have been in my head for two years. It was time to try writing Fatal Mistakes. Before I can continue on with the story, I’ll need to edit and clean up the mess I have. But I have a 73 page start and better ideas for how to continue. 

Now it’s time for a much deserved break! I've written some fics during my hiatus novel is pretty dark so I needed a break and will be going back to writing fanfiction. My first priorities are to compete my story for the Jrock Christmas exchange and then edit/post the sequel to Almost a Nightmare which has been sitting around gathering dust since September... oops... then after that I'm not sure what I'm going to write
