Well, NaNoWriMo is officially over. My hats off to everyone who managed to write 50,000 words in 30 days. That’s just crazy cool and you all deserve a cookie!
In case you were wondering, I did manage to finish writing Dead Magic. I got it done Monday last week, so I was way ahead of schedule and had the Epilogue written and everything. Now I just need to type up the last 5 chapters and throw it out to my Alpha readers (( I love you, Alpha’s! )).
Because of school I have to schedule out my time differently. So! On Saturday (December 1st) my son and I had a play day. We decorated the house, put the Christmas tree up, strung lights and made giant gingerbread men. It was a blast! We also went to see Rise of the Guardians at the movies.
Honestly, I loved the movie. It was touching. And funny. My son walked away claiming that he wanted to be Jack Frost — which, given the backstory they gave the poor fellow, I was torn about — and cheering that the Boogeyman had been subdued. (Sorry if that’s a spoiler but I mean … it’s a kids show and that’s the bad guy, do the math.)
Welcome to December! I hope everyone is excited for the holidays — however you like to celebrate them.
