YAY! Congratulations Sarra! I'm so glad you WON NaNo! I am proud of you and I am proud of myself too. I have been averaging about 2k words a day, and I am only about 1,800 away from winning! I am blown away by my progress. This gives me so much hope for the future, and this is my first novel and first NaNo! I'm definitely not stopping tomorrow, I'm going to keep writing until the end of Nov., and then I am going to write all through Dec. too. I am so excited to finish this year strong. Thank you so, so much for being such a major cheerleader and inspiration for all of us out here! I never would have done this if I had not found this channel back in May. I am amazed. Something like this would have never crossed my mind. Seriously, you have had such a positive influence on my life. Your inspiration and your spirit have been so contagious! I'm going to cry, LOL. This is such a huge thing for me. I can't even begin to tell you how momentous this is! It has changed my life so much for the better! Thank you Sarra! You Rock! Now go get all those words these next couple of days! You can do it! You've GOT this!!! Hugs :)

I hit the 50k on the 19th and had to totally revamp my reward structure since this is my first Nano and I did not know what to expect. I hit 65k today and just got around to ordering my 50k reward-- a super adjustable lap desk. This way I'm not chained to my desk, which I have discovered is too low, too, so the lap desk can also function as a standing desk when my body is all done sitting there but my story won't let go yet! Lol When I finish the draft, which I think will end up around 80 or 90k, I'm getting a new tattoo as my BIG reward!! I've only discovered you a couple of months ago, so your throwback vlogs are all new to me! Keep 'em comin'! And congrats!!

Good morning, Sarra. Congratulations!!!!! I hope when that book is done you will take a night to just chill and pamper. I won't be finishing. I had scheduled in time to write while I was traveling last week but none of them happened. The people I was with stayed up way too late for me to sneak off and write for even 30 minutes. I'd not seen these people in 8-10 years so I just let it roll. However, I did take one night at a hotel in transit and went through your entire plotting series and got my novel plotted out. I"m not normally a plotter but I found out things that will really enrich my story.... but more importantly, got me EXCITED to write the book after 18 months of struggle. Thank you, dear lady. You are a treasure and I'm so blessed to have you in my life in any form. Creative Blessings!

As good as I know winning will feel, I know that the most important part of this month is finding new things that work for me, learning to up my word count (this morning I wrote 1065 in 25 minutes!) without burning out, and adapting my planner to work for me. It'll be these things that I carry forward as November ends.

That's how I feel Zoe. I did no planning and now see that with the next one, I want to be prepared. I did get some coherency in the mess, but because I had no plan, it winged out every which way and when I reached points where I wanted to add an intense scene, I waffled it. I think the best thing is, this was my first nano and the first time I tried to sit down and write a novel in about 20 years. All the learning and work I had done early in my life was put on a back burner, so I need to re-learn how to do it. The writing comes naturally in many ways, but the structure? Not so much :).
