I have now expanded on this idea and am doing a rewrite which will hopefully be much longer.<br /><br />The second time I did the full thing and finished in two weeks. Right now I'm editing my first four chapters for a critique.<br /><br />It was worth it to me.<br /><br />P.S. I know this is late but I just love Nano. ^^Brooke R.

I've participated 4 years in a row and won twice, and I'm doing it again this year.<br /><br />Here's the thing: even if it is a completely putrid pile of dog poo and the only thing it's good for is throwing it out and lighting a fire on it, you still have practiced writing in a different way and honed your craft.<br /><br />Good luck!!!Jenn Adamshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10443688970619269216noreply@blogger.com
