There was blood. There was sweat. There were tears. There was even a little bit of pee. Yes, those were all things that my protagonists experienced on my plot-holed road to the story’s conclusion. I, on the other hand, experienced mostly just sweat from the anxiety of wondering if I would make it in time. And here I am, done with days to spare.
But before I perform my happy dance, I should point out that in NaNoWriMo, a “winner” is just someone who pasted fifty thousand individual words into a verification box on their website. So you’ll never really know whether I cheated or not. Think about that, huh?
Anyway, that was a bit of an adventure, and I have a lesson to take away from the experience. And that is: Don’t do it again anytime soon.
Phew. And now, I return you to your regularly scheduled Second Life.
This is a test of the new comment thing.
