Christmas is Coming!

Whew!



I successfully completed another year of NaNoWriMo! I was writing down to the last day, but all went well and the novel is done. Nothing major, a fanfic story, but it was fun to write and good practice, right? Right.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


And now it is already 23 days til Christmas. Where does the time go?

Here, we celebrate the day after Thanksgiving to New Year's as 'Christmastime'. We enjoy it all, instead of setting our sights on just one day and having it go by too fast.

To all of you: Happy Christmastime!

  1. Congratulations! I'm always impressed when somone can do that - write everyday for a month and finish a novel. I'll be checking back to see what you post during the 31 days of Christmas. I'd do it but the first one stumped me - we're traditionally untraditional.
