Dawn Groves Land

I started the outline of my NaNoWriMo project. OHMYGODITISSOBADITWILLNEVERSELLIMGOINGTODIEPENNILESS.

Got that out of my system.

Think about yourself for a minute. (Not difficult for most of us…) Every experience in life combines to create who you are today: your pain, your sins, weight gain, acne, that time you vomited on your date. Everything. Not just the pretty stuff.

Same with your novel. Everything you write — even the overwrought purple prose — puts you this much closer to the ultimate goal.

Glory comes to those who dare. But sometimes you have to dare many times before the glory can happen.

NaNo starts in a week. Do you dare?
