NaNoWriMo is almost over

Dear Shell,

NaNoWriMo is almost over. It has been a pretty good month. I have about 52,000 done in Hide Me - Hideaway Inn. And another 15,000 in Just Five More. I am still loving Hideaway Inn. I am still working on adding scenes in where they are needed, and trying to add in the descriptions that I'm missing.

Just Five More has become something different than what I was planning on. It was going to be a chick lit story, but it has become more of a self-exploration journal instead. I might be able to get a few good short stories or essays out of it to try to get published in some magazines.

Tomorrow at midnight is the official end of NaNoWriMo. I am actually at a write-in right now, but we are talking so much that I'm having trouble concentrating on writing. haha. The only writing I'm getting done so far is during our word sprints (15 minutes, write as much as possible non-stop). The sprints are nice because it forces you to just write.

I should get back to writing. I need to figure out where these scenes fit.

Forcing myself to concentrate,
Shell
