I‘m sure you are all aware, today is the end of NaNo month. I didn’t do the Writing one, I opted for Peggy’s lesser know Revision month. I have to admit, it was a brilliant idea of hers.
WriMo doesn’t really call to me. It tends to lurk in the shadows and make rude gestures at me when it thinks I’m not looking. I just don’t have the spare capacity to drop everything and write, no matter how much I would love to.
My goals for RevMo were quite modest compared to a lot of the gang who signed up:
* Do a complete revision of my MS
* Type up the changes (I have to edit on a printed copy, otherwise I can’t keep track. What can I say, I’m a bloke.)
* Write a synopsis.
Thanks to the support of everyone taking part, I achieved my goals on the 29th. A day early. I also found that I needed to insert a chapter, which when I wrote it, turned into two chapters. I also managed to get these completed by the 29th.
One of the great things with the RevMo gang was that we put the last line we edited for the day into our update mails. It was so cool, (and sometimes a bit intimidating when you read the awesome lines) and for me, added a little extra to the whole thing.
I just want to say a massive heartfelt THANKYOU to everyone who played along. You helped me do a hell of a lot more than I would have done without you, and you made me realise that I’m not alone in this writing game!
Awww, we love our bloke across the pond! Although November is over, this writing gig aint...so lets keep it up. Well done btw. You did great.
