NaNoWriMo Fail... but it did the job.
15 years ago
I took a shot at National Novel Writing Month this year. Write a 50,000 word narrative in 30 days... how hard could it be, right?
Well, not that hard, actually. I was getting 2K words a day pretty easily. It took up a lot of time, but I wasn't having any trouble with it.
By the fifth, though, I kept thinking "You know... I miss working on comics." That happens a lot... I get into RPing, and it's great, but I miss working on comics. I start working on a real website for myself, and it's coming along nicely, but I miss working on comics.
'Course, one of the things about NaNoWriMo is that you're encouraged to sit down and just start writing. Jump right into the act of pure creation.
That's just what I did. I sat down with paper and pencil, and started making comics again.
So... I failed NaNoWriMo, but it didn't fail me.

Hey, a failure is better than not trying at all. So congrats. :)
