Oh yeah, I'm awesome.

I've done it!!! I've really done it!!!

31 days of non-stop blogging.

I declare that I'm a NaBloWriMo winner, and it feels fantastic!!!

For all you newcomers I'm normally a M-F type of girl, and that's exactly what I'm going back to!

However something else is in the works for November...

NaNoWriMo!

For those of you who have joined and need a writing buddy I'd love to be yours!!! (Username: Jen_Unedited)

What are you going to write about? What is everyone working on that isn't participating in NaNo? (yeah, I'm keeping this short and sweet)

I made it through NaBlo as well (although I counted weekend posts as one) and survived my book launch. Now I'm ready for NaNo.

Congratulations you crazy girl! I cna't even blog for two days in a row anymore nevermind 31.

Good luck with NaNo. I'm not doing it this year -- too much pressure.

Happy Halloween!

Your persistence impresses/exhausts me! You'll probably finish your NaNo novel next week and be twiddling your thumbs until Thanksgiving :)

Shannon Duffy said...

Wow, holy blogging girl! Congrats! I'm just finishing polishing a MG fantasy novel and query and hopefully will be sending the query out the end of next week. After that, I will be starting the sequel to it. Not sure if it will be two or three at this point. So, no NaNo for me, but good luck to you and all participating! Happy writing! :)

Congrats! on surviving NaBlo. I'll be doing nano for the second straight year. I typed 25,000 words last year and will shoot for 50,000 this time. Trying to finish two WIPs this time around.

Dionne said...

Congrats Jen on all your hard work, you are Awesome!!! As for nano, I'll be working on one of two stories for it, still trying to make up my mind on which one. ;)

Summer Ross said...

You did it jen! awesome, congrats for writing everyday this last month!

I have no clue yet what I'm writing- i know horrible right? anyway- have a wonderful Halloween!

Amy Saia said...

I guess I only have one day to think about it, lol. Here's to success for you and everyone involved! It'll be a bust month for writers : )

Theresa Milstein said...

Congratulations on your month-long accomplishment.

I'm not doing NaNoWriMo, but I'll check how you're doing. Right now, I barely write because of my new job. It's sucking away time, energy, and creativity. Maybe sanity. But I think about it a lot and have a rough idea of where it's going. I'm at about 21k. : )

Happy Halloween!

Bidisha said...

Congrats, Jen!
That's such a feat. Maybe I should do it too. My blog's being neglected :(

Shallee said...

Yeah for winning! :) And good luck with NaNo. I'm not participating, as I'm hard at work revising my current wip so it's ready for a full novel critique at the end of November. So I guess you could say I'm doing NaNoRevMo. :)

Beth Fred said...

Congratulations!

Nicole Zoltack said...

Congrats, that's an awesome achievement. I sometimes struggle just coming up with blog posts for M-F.

Good luck with Nano! I can't wait for November. I'm going write Champion of Valor, the last book in my fantasy romance ebook series. After that, I'm going to concentrate on getting an agent and moving up the publishing ladder.

Oh, and my nano sn is Scarlett9284, if you want to buddy up. :)

Jennie Bailey said...

Congrats, Jen!!! You rock, woman! See you at NaNo! I'll be posting your interview a week from tomorrow. I'll remind you again via email!

Bish Denham said...

I cheated and started a week early but I have to quit a week early, so really, that should be okay?
I will see you there!

Lisa Galek said...

Go, Jen!

I didn't make it the whole month, but I only missed 2 or 3 days, so I'm pretty happy overall :)

Good luck with NaNoWriMo next month!

Well done, Jen. I'm so impressed.

I'm buddying you right now! Let's NaNoWriMo! (Username: hannchoward)

Emy Shin said...

And good luck with NaNo!

Donea Lee said...

WTG, Jen! WOO HOO! You go girl!! *cartwheels* :) Seriously applauding you, because I don't even have 31 posts TOTAL!

I haven't officially signed up for NanoWrimo...guess I better do that right now. I'm about 20 pages into a new story idea...so, I think I'm going to continue working on that as my Nano project. Another 50,000 words would do wonders for it. Wishing us both luck!! Write on!

Mimi said...

Well done on the month of blogging!
re Nano, I'll just be the reader, they also serve who only sit and read, right? oh, and comment too!

Karen Baldwin said...

This is my first NaNo. I have NO idea what I'm doing, but I'm writing whatever is in my head. This morning I wrote 2,000 words. I hope I can keep it up.

Jessica Ann Hill said...

Yay! Congrats Jen!!

I'm not officially participating in NaNo, but I am going to try to get a lot of work done on my WIP. *crosses fingers*

Good luck to you!
