NaNoWriMo Wrap-Up

Posted on by R.M. Archer

NaNoWriMo is now behind us. Actually, it’s been behind me for nearly two weeks, but for most people it has just passed. I went in with a goal of 100k in 17 days, thinking that 6k per day would be totally doable.

NaNoWriMo Update Week 3

NaNoWriMo Update Week 3

Posted on by R.M. Archer

Before I continue, I need to give you an update… on my updates. I’m going on a two-week vacation starting today, so I won’t have updates again until December 4th. I still have posts scheduled between now and then, but my update posts will have a void because I wrote them all yesterday.

These posts will be in addition to your regularly scheduled programming as it was before November. Continue reading “NaNoWriMo Update Week 3” →
