NaNoWriMo

So I have made the concious decision to participate in NaNoWriMo in November for the first time. Despite having major exams at the end of the month I think I can stil do it. Now that I've told people I'm doing it I'm less likely to fail or change my mind lol.

It has an interesting name. What is it exactly?

It's a big international thing where you aim to write 50,000 words of fiction in a month. Part of me thinks I'm crazy since I have major, major law exams at the end of the month so I'll see how I go lol.

GASP! YOU'RE IN LAW TOO!!!!!!!!! Sorry for the caps, I was excited..lol. I'm in law classes too, I'm going to get my Associates for Paralegal! What are you going for?

Oh and the contest thing sounds interesting. I think you should try it!!

Okay you are officually awesome.

I'm doing a straight law degree (not everyone has to do pre law in some Australian universities. Thankfully I'm one of those who dont) so when I finish mid next year (scary!) I can do another 6 month course, become admitted and then I am a fully qualified lawyer... which frankly scares the hell out of me because I don't feel that I know nearly enough to give legal advice. But we all have to start somewhere I guess!

And yeah I love to write but I've never tried writing 50,000 words before, let alone in a month. So it will be interesting lol.
