Racing the Clock on the Last Day of NaNoWriMo

11/29/2021

0 Comments

Racing the clock on the last day of NaNoWriMo is craziness; there's just no better way to put it. 

I won't "win" this year, in that I won't hit 50,000 words in a single, brand-new work (as I'm an old-school WriMo), but I did hit several other wins in November.

-I wrote Down Falls The King: A Splitting World Novella (20,000+ words)


-I edited A LOT of books for other people for work
-I reviewed some books for Reedsy Discovery
-I attended several lives with amazing writers
-I did a reading live for Down Falls The King
-I celebrated the one-year anniversary of publicly sharing my writing journey

​And those are just the highlights!

But what I've learned in November surpasses far more than accomplishments (or lack thereof, if your November felt a little lackluster).

It even gives me relief while racing the clock on the last day of NaNoWriMo. 

This month I was reminded to put the big rocks into the glass of life first, and then the pebbles, sand, and water.

If your writing is a long-term part of your life, you never really "cross" your finish line. Instead that line gets pushed back again and again and again. 

So remember to be kind to yourself.

Show yourself the same care you show others.

And allow yourself to be human.

A celebration tour (especially on a train full of magical monsters) would not be a celebration without some celebration food. Here are two recipes inspired by the favorite food of some of these magical creatures: the troll sisters' favorite chicken salad sandwiches, and Squishy's "Inky" (black bean) soup.
