Camp NaNoWriMo Results

CAMP NaNoWriMo
RESULTS
April and July



Holy Guacamole!
I have been neglecting my blog this summer!

Well, I must give you all an update on my Camp NaNoWriMo challenge. I originally set my goal for 50,000 words and I tried my best to reach that goal. But, somehow I didn’t think I could make it so I reset my goal (the best part about Camo NaNo is that you can set your own goal and change it throughout the month) to 40,000 words.

I actually surpassed that goal and ended the April Camp with 45,631 words. Woo hoo!

Then, I decided to try for the July Camp NaNo. I wasn’t sure how many words I needed to write so I decided on a low number: 10,000 words. Since it was the summer and school went really, really late this year (we got out of school almost at the very end of June), I didn’t want to work that hard. I ended up with 15,408 words (over my goal again!).

So, now it’s August and I’m taking a writing break so I can enjoy the warm sunshine on my face as I leisurely walk around outside, smelling the fragrant flowers wafting through the air. I just love the lazy days of summer.    :)

How about you? Do you take writing breaks during the summer or a certain time during the year?

Enjoy the rest of your summer!

Until next time ~
