It is Done

So November 30th was the last day of NaNoWriMo and I was able to relax the whole day because I finished my novel at about 2 A.M. that morning.  I have since recovered from the intensive writing that is 50,000 words in 30days.  I will admit that there were days when it seemed as if I may not succeed, but I pushed through and finished with about 50,300 words.  My story was complete and now begins the real work of making sure that it's good.  It's easy to write 50,000 words, but it is not easy to make sure that those words tell a good and a complete story.  For those in my life that felt the pain of watching me struggle to put words to keyboard for a month I appreciate your sacrifice and hopefully it will be worth while.  Now I can take and 11 month break until next year.  Speaking of next year I just found out that my daughter, who will be 13 by then, is planning on doing NaNo next year also.  Should be fun.
