In October 2023 I discovered NaNoWriMo. It stands for National Novel Writing Month. Hundreds of thousands of aspiring authors pound their keys despite all around going to hell in a handcart. Up until the first day of November I had not sustained a regular writing routine. This competition would galvanise me into action and prove to myself whether I could 'get on with it'.
Well, I did, and I won. Winning means writing over 50,000 words in the month of November. I wrote 50,073. Around 16,000 words are a full size book outline and the rest are made up of around 24 story ideas.
I gather that of the many folks who signed up, only 33,000 made it to the end. I am proud to be counted in that number.
