NANOWRIMO: YEAH IT'S A MOUTHFUL

So it's November and for all of you that don't know it yet, I am a writer. Yes you heard me a writer. You might have read some of my papers on here or even seen my post about myself and my series The Adventures of Marco and Carla. Well this month I have taken up a whole new venture. What is it you ask? Well it's NaNoWriMo of course.

NaNoWriMo is an event open to all writers out there. The quest of NaNoWriMo is to try and write 50,000 (Yes I said 50,000) words by the end of November. Each year thousands of writers put a side what they are doing to participate in the event and this year I am one of those writers. I was hard at work on the next volume to The Adventures of Marco and Carla series when I decided to take a break from it and try this out, also it's for school.

So I am currently writing a new story and of course it's YA because that's all I really write, besides papers for class. Hopefully I will have it done by the end of November and published for you find people to read and enjoy. Also if you are a writer check out the NaNoWriMo website NaNoWriMo Link it's a great way to test yourself to see if you have what it takes to write a novel in one month.

Sadly I don't think I will be writing a whole novel. But I am aiming high and trying to get close to those 50,000 words. Who knows maybe I will prove myself wrong and make it to the 50,000 words. Oh yeah you might be wondering what you get for doing this. Well if you get up to 50,000 and after you've sent your story in to be checked (You must write 50,000 words). They will let you know if you've won and when you have you can have a polished manuscript and also publish your book with Createspace and get 5 free copies of your published book.

So brush off that pen of yours and that idea that you have stuck in your head put it paper and write what might be the next great novel.

P.S. If you are on Google + you will fine tunes of great writers on there in NaNo circles that you can talk to and bounce ideas of. We writers are awesome that way.

BOOKS AND WEBSITES NEW MOTHERS SHOULD CHECKOUT

  Being a new mother I can say is one of the scariest things in the world. You are now in charge of a new life. You are charged with the responsibility of making sure he/she is feed, cleaned, entertained and every need taken care of. Mind you because of the demands being placed on you by your new little bundle of joy you might feel that you have no time for yourself, and I would say that your right! For the first few months of your baby's life, your life is no longer your own. You sleep when he/she sleeps, you eat when you have time to sneak it in, and you finally take a shower when he/she takes a long nap. But it gets better and its well worth it. Eventually your little bundle starts sleeping thought   All of those demands and sleepless nights were something you thought you were prepared for, but when it finally came down to it you were totally wrong. Gone are helpful nurse's that would take your little one to the nursery when you wanted to take a nap. Gone are the extra

EBOOKS OR TRADITIONAL BOOKS

  With the human race ever evolving so is our way of doing things. When man first started writing he took chalk to the wall of caves. From there we've moved on to paper, but we did not stop there. The way of spreading the written word has evolved beyond what any prehistoric man could dream. From chalk, to the pencil, to the printing press, to the typewriter, and now to the modern computer. We have surely come a long way and with these leaps we have moved forward with the way we entertain, horrify, and thrill the modern reader. Since technology has made it so easy for use in developed countries to have access to books are we going to evolve pass the traditional book? Will we no longer need to feel paper under our finger tips with the introduction of the eBook? Paper or Plastic   Not everyone has a computer, Ipad or an ebook reader (Nook, Kindle, Kobo). So is it safe to say that the traditional paper books that we've grown up with are not endanger? I think not! I say thi
