Done. With my very first romance novel. The first novel I've ever written. And the first story since my 10th grade creative writing class effort in which I used original characters.
So the first thing I want to do is thank all the nice and friendly people who've cheered me on: Margaret, Wendy, Alyson, Cindy, Amy, Jenn, Vicky, and Anna, you guys are the best. I can't tell you how nice it was to have all the support that I did!
Next, I want to thank the person who's put up with the most because of this month: Jeff. He's a darling sweetheart who didn't roll his eyes, question my sanity, or discourage me in any way; he's been a consultant, a counselor, and a very good partner-in-crime when I didn't want to write.
I've been asked to share what I wrote. As of yet, I am extremely uncomfortable sharing. I will want to revise, revise, throw away, take back, revise some more before I decide on that. There are many inconsistencies I have to duke out. Beyond this, it is a first effort. And like most of my first efforts in cooking, sewing, and chemistry, it really shoudn't see the light of day!
Overall, I've been pretty happy with my NaNo Experience. I'm not sure if I'll write another novel this way, but I think I'll definitely give writing another novel a shot. I think I've gained a lot from this experience and I'm excited about trying it again. Maybe not in this hectic pound-it-all-out crazy way. SLOOOW.
