PORCH PONDERINGS

Quill Nomination!

I just received a note that this BLOG is nominated for a Quills award. Well, thank you to whomever nominated my ruminations and wanderings.

I am humbled and truly honored.

Right now the OctoPrep Challenge is in its last day. What a month it has been! A large group of writers undertook the challenge of preparing for the big job of NaNoWriMo in November.

I have done this challenge a few times. Truly it is a great way to get your novel up to speed.

Now for the second year, I am a cheerleader. This year, head cheerleader is the position I gladly took on. We exhort, cajole, encourage, even bribe just a bit. Anything to get people to finish, to strive just a little harder to work on their story.

I'm having a ton of fun. It's been a great month. So far, 27 writers have won, and 2 have become runners-up.

Good luck to all still writing, they still have a few hours.
