I can't believe it has been one year since I started this blog. During that year, I have rediscovered my love of writing as well as me discovering how best to approach my lack of motivation to keep writing. Thanks to this blog, I have been able to complete Camp NaNoWriMo, JuNoWriMo, and NaNoWriMo in record time.
And I have you all to thank for this successful year and I hope for many more years with this blog.
As for NaNoFiMo, I'll get to it tomorrow.

I Guess I Forgot About NaNoFiMo
Well, this is...weird.
Apparently, I had signed up for this site called NaNoFiMo, which is short for National Novel Finishing Month.
As in, you have one month to finish writing your novel.
Well, had I known about it back then, it would have saved me so many hours, weeks, and even years of complete embarrassment, providing that I should have used the site when I had the chance.
Now I am.
This year, I hope to wrap up the story "And You Thought Your Family Was Weird" after my embarrassing flop last year. I bet you've all seen the blog post where I was angry with myself for failing to properly write the story, so don't ask. This time, however, I’m going to pick up where I left off and hopefully, save the novel.
The revamped novel now stands at 16,276 words, so I’m kind of ahead of schedule. Hopefully, I can get to 20,000 words before Monday.
In case I forget, I’m going on the site to get ready to finish the novel, so if you have any questions, don't hesitate to comment on this blog. I will get back to you shortly.

The Post NaNoWriMo Blues
I call this post "The Post NaNoWriMo Blues", because it's been a day since NaNoWriMo ended. I'm now wondering what happens next, since the blog was mainly used for keeping track of my NaNoWriMo novel during the month of November. What do I do now?
Well, I already know that have a ton of blog posts to make up and I'm not sure if I can do them all in a month. Also, I have seven books to finish writing, edit, and eventually publish. So I have one day to rest and then it's back to work.
With that, I will see you tomorrow.

Day 30 of NaNoWriMo 2016
OK, so I have one more word to write today and that word is...
*cue confetti cannons and fireworks*
Since I'm here, I want to thank the person who came up with the idea of reverse NaNoWriMo, as I couldn't have done it without them. I also want to thank everyone who has supported me on this endeavor, you all rock. Congratulations to all winners of NaNoWriMo 2016, whether you wrote 50,000 words or not.
With that, I bid you all a fond farewell and I'll see you in December.
"comment."That's right. I have successfully made it to the end of the month, with just one word to write, making my word count 50,000 words!

Day 29 of NaNoWriMo 2016
It's the penultimate day of NaNoWriMo, and I have 116 words left to write. I wonder how did that happen, seeing as I haven't exactly been up to par with my writing. But I'm at the end of the second part of my story and with that, I can't really start with part 3 until NaNoEdMo, when I'm free to edit this story and explain what that story's about.
With that, I give you today's word count;
With that, I give you today's word count;
- Today's words written: 116
- Total words written: 49,999

Day 28 of NaNoWriMo 2016
It's Cyber Monday today and I confess that I've gone on a shopping spree on Amazon, buying as many books as I could, for free. As usual, I did my writing in the morning so I would have more time to shop online. Not to be a Boasting Betsy, but my word count is shorter than most people's. But I won't hold anything against you if you don't have 50,000 words written.
- Today's word count: 231 words
- Words count: 49,883 words

Day 27 of NaNoWriMo 2016
It's the last Sunday of November (and NaNoWriMo) and while most people are panicking with trying to squeeze their way to 50,000 words, I feel at peace knowing that the fewer words I write, the more my word count rises. I don't have to feel any pressure at all, save for when I have to write for at least 30 minutes.
Well, I'll be back tomorrow!
Well, I'll be back tomorrow!
- Today's word count: 346 words
