National Novel Writing Month was a success for me! Quick stats: title – Enough is Full of Romance (though I wrote it as Almost Maybes) genre – romance (umm, big surprise?) 50,000 words – November 23 final word count – 60,107 words Not too bad! I probably could have written more but I had to…
During the week, I write my thoughts in a Google Doc called “TWITL 2020 – ideas.” Most of the stuff I write there doesn’t make it to this blog because it’s so personal and meant just for me. It’s the place where I try to work things out in my head so that maybe I…
