Hey there bookworms! It’s only Monday, we’re in a new month, and there’s so much going on. The sun is out, the weather is warming up, so it seems like the perfect time to stay in and write.
Wait, what?
That’s right. It’s time to write because it’s time for CampNaNoWriMo and I’m dedicating this post to all of my aspiring writers out there! Now is the time to face your fears and begin that novel you always wanted to write!
I signed up for this project last year, and I literally didn’t write a single word. I was days away from leaving my last job and the panic set in that I needed to find something else, you know, in order to survive, that all of my projects slammed to a dead stop. It was really frustrating.
Now, with life being as hectic as it is most days, finding the time to power down and write is just as tough. The words don’t always come, and the ideas don’t always flow no matter how many outlines you create (I have 3).
Anyway, It’s always been my goal to finish a story I’ve started and I’m going to use CampNaNoWriMo to help me in achieving that goal. When I write and edit products for the majority of my day at the office, coming home to write is even more difficult, but I’m determined to make it happen, and I encourage you to do the same.
Head to camp nanowrimo.org to sign up and track your project! There’s tons of fantastic writing resources at your disposal and help right at your fingertips with the conversation, inspiration, and cabins tabs.
As for me, you can find me on the Camp NaNo site being my own toughest critic. Friend me and we can hype each other up to keep writing! I’ll also be tracking my story over on Wattpad. You can find the link on the homepage, or head here to read my political romance, Madam President.
She’s just been elected to the highest office in the free world. He’s the one sworn to protect her at all costs.
With the most demanding, yet lonely occupation in the country, how will Abigail James persevere for the next four years? She has all the makings of a wonderful president, but at the end of the day, she’s still human.
Roman Harrison has always been the good guy. He spent his life on the straight and narrow and wound up in one of the most important positions in the country. When he’s assigned as personal secret service to the first female president of the United States, his sense of duty and obligation, as well as his inhibitions, fly out the window. There’s something intoxicating about Abby that he can’t help but be drawn towards. He wants to break all of his rules when it comes to her. She not only needs a constant shield, but also a companion and friend she can turn to for support.
The lines between the pair blur and rumors begin to circulate and make major headlines. The distraction from policy and seeming lack of respect for a female leader has the potential to jeopardize the presidency if things aren’t handled carefully.
Is there such a thing as mixing power and pleasure, or will duty to country take precedence to undying love?
As usual, I’m behind on the blog, but don’t worry, I won’t neglect the space for the month. I just need to find more hours in the day.
That being said, I am off to (hopefully) write some words before I pass out. I hope I see some of you and your awesome words for Camp!! Best of luck and keep writing!!
