these broken walls.

I just want to address something a lot of people who are unfamiliar with NaNoWriMo have been plaguing me with: Why do you write a novel in a month if you know it's not your best work? I'll be the first to admit their question holds some truth. I've never edited or looked back on any of my NaNo novels. I don't think they're good stories and I'm not proud of the way they were put together. But I AM proud that I wrote them. I'm proud of the discipline it took to create them. Because to me, November is a month for me to fall back in love with writing. This writing event is a way for me to push myself to do something crazy. No, the NaNo books I write won't be published or go national. They'll probably never gain any attention. But writing has ALWAYS been a hobby for me, and this challenge is a way for me to get back into what I love. So don't hate on me. After all, have YOU written a novel in a month? If not, who are you to criticize me? 😉
