I spent the first few days HATING everything I wrote, but I think I've broken out of that now and I'm quite happy with what's coming out :)<br /><br />Good luck to you!Miss Colehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05014234633679291480noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2607361012616301332.post-56157282180352681582011-11-04T18:43:19.698+00:002011-11-04T18:43:19.698+00:00@MBee - thank you for the pep talk!

I did look to see if there were some meet ups in my area, but I don't think there are any :o( I will perhaps look if there is anything slightly further afield.

There will definitely be days when you fly along and things are just working out perfectly. Other days you'll barely coast by and want to throw in the towel, but keep at it. Those days will make up for the coasters and even out in the end :)<br /><br />Definitely check and see if there are any write-ins in your area. I set up for 2 a week in a town near me and am so so excited to see such a great turn out this yr. Years past it's been a trickle, 2 maybe 3 other people but that's it. This year it's between 7 and 10 and it's pretty awesome, especially since you'll find it harder to slack off when others are watching! heh <br />Good luck and keep up the good work!MBeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17325522661963443320noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2607361012616301332.post-1582698056732027642011-11-04T17:36:23.202+00:002011-11-04T17:36:23.202+00:00That's cool that you're doing so great wit...That's cool that you're doing so great with NaNo. Good luck.
