Reflect:

NaNoWriMo 2008.

Wow. I can't believe it's over. In some ways, it feels surreal. Like this weird journey that I can't believe I put myself through.

I am insane, for trying this.

This morning, I started out at a little over 41k. 9k to go. I figured it would be impossible, something I wouldn't do.

Boy was I wrong. In the final hours of NaNoWriMo, I crossed the finish line to 50k.

Here's what I have to say about this experience:

NaNo was one of the most amazing, stupid, wonderful, insane things I've ever done. Writing a novel in a month is not something I would advise people to do, but I did it. It was insane, pushing myself to the limit. I was tired, crabby, and ready to beat some sense into my characters.

But I did it. I crossed the finish line.

One more year, and I do it again.
