In my online travels I found this very interesting website/organization. The idea is that you write a novel in 30 days. A 50,000 word novel. In 30 days. Can you imagine? So I decided to would try it. I am a little nervous and a little excited.
I used to write a lot in high school and just after. I wrote short stories, novels, poems and songs. I did some of everything. I miss not writing. My mom was talking about how she wrote a few short stories recently and loved it. It made me want to write too. I have written a lot but I think I am going to branch out a little with this writing experiment of mine. I think I am going to write a fantasy novel. Not a crazy one, but just a little fantasy twist I think.
I will keep my blog readers updated with my word count for the next 30 days. I will start tomorrow and will end August 2nd. Maybe I will even put excerpts up on a website. Hm. We will see.
Word Count: 0

Wow, what a lofty goal. I cant wait to read some. Have you rea the twilight books? She used to be in my ward and she would just write everyday when she put her kids to bed.
Liz, I haven't read them, but everyone keeps telling me that I desperately need to. They are next on my list, not to worry.
I have thought about my spare moments and such and think this is VERY doable for me. In fact I wrote my first 500 words this morning before I headed to work. For christmas my dad gave me a digital voice recorder and I carry that around with me to take notes durring the day anyway, I just created a story notes folder. And I will definately post some bits and pieces for you guys to read. I am excited!
I cant wait to read it! You must post it!
Liz, I didn't know that you knew Stephanie Meyer!? How bizarre is that.
Can't wait to read it Nikki, maybe you will have a best seller!
