All hail those who are already treading the National Novel Writing Month Marathon. It’s officially the half-way mark and I want to offer up sincere kudos to anyone who has come this far. Even standing at the starting line of NaNoWriMo is an accomplishment. Choosing to commit to your writing for a month, 50,000 words is remarkable. We, as writers, often promise to dedicate ourselves to the true art of the page but find reason after reason standing in our path.

Each year, NaNoWriMo gives thousands of writers an escape from life clause. For one crazy month we’re permitted to let all other of life’s “priorities” fall away. This one month we are going to write and not feel guilty. It’s only for one month after all.

So, how is your NaNo journey going so far? Are you with us at the official half-way mark? I’d love to hear about your progress! Now is a great time to share!
