NaNoWriMo Wrapup
April Camp NaNoWriMo is coming to an end. My goal for this adventure was to complete as least 15000 words of Doctor Jack (30-35K words). Camp is useful that way – I can write new stories, revise, edit – whatever. But how to record the rewrites? The official camp information quotes one hour of rewrites…

As we had several unexpected events over the past month, I was not entirely sure we would succeed. Yet, we did.…
