In the Winner's Circle Again!

I did it! I didn't really want to write at the beginning of November, I was in a funky funk and kept telling myself that I had to do this. I had to write the story that my favorite aunt had ask me to write earlier in the year. I'd put it off all summer since she sent me the outline. But for NaNoWriMo, I decided that was the time to start this story.

By the end of the month I had accumulated 70K words. I got to make two great new friends, Ben and Jane. The main characters in the story titled The Wonder of Jane. Dedicated to my Aunt Liz and Uncle Buddy (deceased).

I'm really happy with myself. One: for coming out of my writers funk. Two: for accomplishing something for someone special to me. Three: for putting another Winner's Certificate on my wall. For all those that participated in NaNo this year, it was fun, wasn't it?

I missed my good friend TL for this year's challenge. She's been my writing buddy for a long time and to do NaNo without her was a little scary at first. But she kept up with my progress and cheered me along the way. So thank you, TL/KS, I couldn't have done it without you  and hope you'll have time for NaNo next year.

Now the real work begins. I need to find an ending that I like. But first I will need to read through and edit and proof to find the ending that fits the best. But I figure, after all the spit and polish, it should come out to about 70-80K. Good word count for a little romance. I hope to have it readable for my Aunt by Christmas. So like it or not, I'll still be spending half the day each day on The Wonder of Jane.
