After 30 days in a row of writing in every nook and cranny available, I was able to put down 52,059 words, therefore “winning” NaNoWriMo 2018. Of course it’s a personal win with no real prizes except that the extra motivation helped me realize my goal of getting a second novel rough draft in place.
After a month of work I plan to sit on this one for awhile and see what materializes as the best ending for the story.
