NaNoWriMo 2017 is done!

Yesterday, I validated my novel...

Yay!!

As I mentioned on Friday, I technically finished the first draft of my latest WIP then. BUT, during the weekend I made a small list of stuff that needed to be added before (really) calling it done.

That's what I did on Monday + Tuesday. And when that was all taken care of, I scrambled my novel and validated it on the NaNo website.

I'm super excited about completing another novel during NaNoWriMo. 😊

Here are some stats:

The story I ended up writing is one that has been inside my head for several months. It all started with a folder full of (lovely) inspirational pics I kept on my phone and a notebook to jot down my ideas. So I was pretty sure about what was going to happen and how the story was going to end. 

Then, a week before NaNo, I decided that the main character I originally planned to tell the story was all wrong. Hubby helped me talk through this prob, and I ended up writing the story in the POV of a different character. The RIGHT character, because I loved telling this tale of scary things, wonderful things, and love.

I'm SO happy with how it turned out and can't wait to revise it. But that's for another time. Right now I need to take the rest of the week off.

Happy NaNoWriMo!
