Summer Scribbling

Hail bloggers and readers from afar!

It's summertime---a thing of watermelons, ice cream, and swimming pools. In addition to these wondrously lovely things, I present to you...

 Yes writers, it's that time of year again, and July is this year's official Camp NaNo month! It's likely that most of you might have heard of the November NaNoWriMo (an annual thing that has become very popular), in which a writer challenges him or herself to scribble down a hefty 50,000 word novel in 30 days.

Last year I participated, (reaching for a slightly less impressive word count of 30,000) and wrote a ton of junk that will probably never amount to anything. Nonetheless, I certainly love the program, and now I've decided to join the bandwagon for the summer addition of the NaNo program.

...July has 31 days, so in theory, this should be a breeze. :P

The project I've decided to work on is a sort of collaboration of me, myself, and I (no, you don't get to know what exactly that means). I'm planning on it being split into several parts that make up one decent-sized novel. For the month of July, I've decided to simply work on Part I, which, I'm hoping, will amount to at least 27,000 words.
Not much, really, but July has the potential to be super crazy, so I might have to sell myself a little short.

Tehehehehe...I had fun making a mock-up cover... ^_^

it's so pretty!!!
Are any of you participating in Camp NaNo? Leave me a comment and let me know!

I seriously want to, but with life the way it is right now, I'm not betting on it happening (family issues have intensified this last week, and we are also getting our house ready for the market and looking for a new house WHILE I'm starting 12 grade and looking for a job). So life's nuts. But that's normal. So we'll see--I'll probably decided within the next week or so. I'll tell you then. :)

Love ya, girl!

Glad to know you're hangin' in there though! ;)

God bless,
