No NaNoWrimo This year

click for entries I've been writing more than ever before and it is the first time since I started participating in the annual #NaNoWriMo that I'm not writing a 50k-word novel in the 30 days of November. I'm writing school papers every week, so I guess I'm not totally forsaking my 2015 OneWord365.

It's not for lack of trying. Even though I tried to use all my free time to work on revising The Belgrave Legacy and writing The Matchmakers any time I could, but I often found myself remembering I had more work to do or just collapsing from exhaustion and opting to take naps rather than do writing sprints.

This isn't to say that I'm not working on my novels at all. I am, just at a slower pace than I had been during my Psych project or than I would be if I were doing NaNo this year. I plan to do Camp NaNo this summer and also writing as much as I can over Thanksgiving and Winter breaks.

For those who are doing NaNo, I am cheering you on from the sidelines. Why don't you comment below about your project and your best advice for fellow NaNoers?
