I just started my new novel and wrote 2,462 words today. Only 47,538 more to go! Have to use my pen name but other than that, no worries!

It’s a small world. This is my 7th year doing NaNoWriMo. I’m at just over 3,400 words for the day, but I suspect I won’t be able to keep up that pace the whole month.

This is my first NaNoWriMo experience and I’m going to give it my best. I certainly hope I can fit in all my dead frog/toad stories.
