NaNoWriMo Last Day!

Thanks so much for all your encouragement and feedback in November, everyone! Like Ed, I reached my NaNoWriMo goal yesterday. I’ve decided not to verify/win since I’m a NaNoRebel — I worked on two pieces, not just one. I’m still more than happy with what I got out of NaNoWriMo, and for writing 50k during the month. I’m still not finished writing the first draft of my second novel, so am now working toward that.

I’ve posted the last NaNoWriMo comic above. Some of you have asked if I can continue it throughout the year. I’m flattered but I have to say no – unfortunately I don’t have time to keep up a daily comic in addition to all my other projects. Do keep checking my Inkygirl blog for other comics, though, and I’ll be starting up my Will Write For Chocolate strip again.

I did take some time during the month to answer a question sent to me for the NaNo Q&A column but it looks like they didn’t have time to post it…so I’m posting it below. Good luck with your writing, everyone, and thanks again for your support. :-)

Debbie, you’ve made a cartoon for every day of NaNoWriMo for your website, inkygirl.com. What inspired you to make Nano-based comics?

I created daily NaNoWriMo comics for the official NaNoWriMo site for two years in a row. The following year, Chris Baty said he didn’t need my comics for the site any more. This was fine, of course, but I missed doing them so decided to post them in my Inkygirl site instead.

Being a past and current NaNoWriMo participant, I figure that a little humor might help writers get past any rough spots on their NaNoWriMo journey. The NaNo forums are a huge inspiration, plus I’m also getting help from my readers, who help decide what happens in the storyline.

Sorry for being so brief, but I have to get back to my NaNoWriMo writing now. Good luck with writing, everyone!
