and so say we all...

-->

Well - we've all failed at this before.  What's different this time?  We are ALL doing it.  So this time - we will succeed.  And we will lower the bar.

Here are some wise words from Chris Baty, the founder of the National Writing Month - 

"This is big.

This is very big.

And it's yours for the taking.  But to get here, you need to give yourself permission to make messes.  To write ungainly sentences and create absolutely atrocious dialogue.  I know it's going to hurt to leave ugly prose in your book.  It may not be the way you've written in the past.  And this may not be the way you chose to write in the future (though I have a sneaky feeling you're going to end up loving it), It is, however, a fantastic path toward getting a novel written and a truly enhancing way to spend a month."

So for me – right now – just starting something and finishing it will be a win.  I don’t need any wimps or excuses – from you or me.  The goal is simply – get it done.

So say we all?  Chris says you need a ‘go to team’ around you.  I’ll be there for you if you’ll be there for me.
