Camp NaNoWriMo – Go Big – Day 5
For those keeping score at home, my goal for Camp NaNoWriMo was to write, edit, cover, and publish two novellas (about 25k words each) before the end of July. So, where are we now? I don’t know where you are, but I’m killing it. It took a few nights of writing until 4 am to
