Is anyone partaking in NaNoWriMo this month? If so, please share how you're getting on! 

I did it last year in order to finish the second draft of a middle grade project and while I found it challenging to stay on track, it was a really nice way of guarding writing time for myself.

I did it in in 2009. I found it useful as a way if learning what I needed to be most productive. The online community of participants was also fun to be in contact with. I haven't felt the need to do it again but I've been on a writing break, so I could probably do with the kick of NaNo.

Hi Victoria,
Yes, you're right! I didn't actually get too involved with the online community of participants when I used it last year, but I do very much enjoy being held accountable.

A writing break is often needed! I hope you're doing okay and feeling like you're ready to put some words down on the page.
