I have officially beaten NaNo! My novel now stands at a whomping 50,030 words and is not finished yet, of course. I will continue to work on it until it's finished, and then comes the editing stages! Which, in my opinion, are harder than the initial writing! I can't believe I've writting 50,000 words in 20 days....that in itself is shocking to me!

That said, I've started a blog about writing. (I do have an English Lit. degree, so I'm not completely full of crap xD )

Basically I'm going to keep updating on the writing process, and outline everything that goes into trying to get published. This 50k that I've written in the past 20 days is really just the beginning of fulfilling a life long dream (: Please follow me, give me feedback, comments, and I'll be posting up bits and pieces of my novel from time to time to keep people in the loop!

Think about this...
You may not realize it, but it's 100% true.
*PLEASE READ THIS WHOLE POST IT'S SO DAMN TRUE*
1. At least 2 people in this world love you so much they would die for you.
2. At least 15 people in this world love you in some way.
3. The only reason anyone would ever hate you is because they want to be just like you.
4. A smile from you can bring happiness to anyone, even if they don't like you.
5. Every night, SOMEONE thinks about you before they go to sleep.
6. You mean the world to someone.
7. If not for you, someone may not be living.
8. You are special and unique.
9. Someone that you don't even know exists, loves you.
10. When you make the biggest mistake ever, something good comes from it.
11. When you think the world has turned its back on you, take a look: you most likely turned your back on the world.
12. When you think you have no chance of getting what you want, you probably won't get it, but if you believe in yourself, probably, sooner or later, you will get it.
13. Always remember the compliments you received. Forget about the rude remarks.
14. Always tell someone how you feel about them; you will feel much better when they know.
15. If you have a great friend, take the time to let them know that they are great. add this as a comment to ten of ur friends tonight and at midnight your true love will find you. Something good will happen to you at 2:25 tomorrow. Get ready for the biggest shock of your life. Whoever breaks this chain letter will be cursed with 10 relationship problems for the next ten years..."
