Not bad for a newbie, eh?
 |
| I won NanoWrimo 2015! We did it guys! |
So! A couple of things...
When I entered Nano, it was mid-month for me due to my dog being extremely sick the first two weeks of November, even though I was ready to go Nov.1. (he's better now, thank goodness) Late September, I had already opened an account on their site, did not finish filling it out until mid month when I had my word upload ready to go.Now when I did finally begin my upload, I found many interesting things:
- It was quite a joyous experience, like you can feel the support energy coming off this website like heat on a hot car engine (whatta rush!)
- Site navigation was much easier than I thought. Filling it out was smooth like buttah!
- My dashboard shows when I uploaded, my progress throughout, how many words I actually uploaded, and my winning trophy badge; LIKE A BOSS! Yes, I did give it a silly title because I wasn't comfortable putting in the real one.
- As you can see, my stats for my word count, how many days I kept adding words (none, cuz I uploaded the whole thing in one go) and stuff
What the NanoWriMo fill out form looks like? (click to enlarge)
Also, it is inside the Word Count box that you insert your novel, not in those Microsoft Word-looking writing spaces below (yes, I know it's confusing)
If you win NanoWriMo you get the following:
- Side Note: Those 'goodies' they speak of, include things like FREE and/or ridiculously discounted publishing materials and services, such as editing. My broke ass is definitely taking advantage of that.So please excuse me, while I run around and do my victory lap. See you @ the next NanoWriMo!
