Hmmm. I seem to be made of win.

It's 10:14 on the last day of April and I just finished my NaNoWriAp! Still cutting it majorly close, but I technically finished more than an hour earlier than I finished last month, so I'm calling it an improvement.

Final word count: 52,996

I was listening to my Bon Jovi playlist for the last part of the story, so it ended up that "Always" (which is, incidentally, my favorite love song of all time) was playing when I crossed 50k and "Have A Nice Day" was playing when I finished.

Phew.

I'm going to go sleep for like a week now. Except that actually I have six huge exams coming up. So actually I'm going to go study.

*Sob*. Life.

Yes, you do seem to be made of win, I have to say. How many NaNos have you won already, anyway? And taking AP tests at the same time? Made. Of. Win.

I found your blog because I was checking out NaNo stuff. I'm trying to decide whether to buy the NaNoLand Chronicles book, and hardly anyone has reviewed it anywhere. It sounds like you liked it, though, so I think I'm gonna go for it. It's all for a good cause, anyway, right?

So, are you going to win another NaNo? If you go for 101,000 words again, I don't think I can touch you, but I just might hit 50K. Okay, I will. All right, I'll throw the darn mango!

My daughter was here with me while I was reading this and she wanted me to say hi from her. She's 10. She wants to write books when she grows up, too. She wrote and illustrated a book this year at school and had fun with it. I'm her hero. (Imagine the cape flying out behind me as I say this with a huge superhero grin on my face and my fists planted on my hips with the wind whipping my hair around. Now you've got it.) :o)
