Writerlust

So much for blogging my process as I attempted National Novel Writing Month 2019... I forgot completely about this blog as all of my writing efforts poured into my 50,000 word goal for November. And I am most happy to report... with three whole days to spare, I WON NANOWRIMO 2019! With a story I wasn't sure had enough meat to make a sandwich out of, let alone a 50,000 word rough draft, I clawed my way across the finish line with time to spare. And the story surprised me! A romance was born that I didn't see coming. I created one of my most favorite comic relief (but also douchey) characters ever... I went dark and scary when I had fully intended to go completely comic and satirical. It was a fun little ride through my imagination and my love of horror films and paranormal investigation style television shows. It was also my first foray into young adult writing. I tend to write older characters, often even older than myself, but this time around I stuck to 18 to 19 year olds
