Tis the Season to be NaNo!

NaNoWriMo to be exact!

Hi again my lovely adventurers! Are you excited as I am this year for NaNoWriMo? Probably not! This year I just know I'm gonna get the fifty thousand words. I'm pretty pumped to get started on my book. I've been planning it in my head since last year. If you don't know what NaNoWriMo is I'm pretty sure I explained it in last year's post.

In other news, I'm a finalist for the World Poetry Contest. This is rather surprising seeing as I really thought I failed at writing poetry. Usually I write a poem by opening up my heart and pouring on the paper. (That could be a bit gory depending on how you picture it.) Then I look back and realize what a big mess it is and clean it up a bit. I'm going to be published in the huge book that supposedly will "last through generations". Anyway I'm still kind of in shock. I'm a poet and I didn't even know it.

Hahaha sorry I had to. Oh, and I'm in another contest. It's for Seventeen magazine. I used to read this mag all the time when I was younger. I'd steal it from my sister's room and snicker at all the parts about "How to Kiss your man". Now I could possibly get published in it! Also when some much needed college money and get to talk to one of my FAVORITE writers, Maggie Steifvater!!!!!

Sorry, but screw the money; talking to her is the only thing that gets me excited to enter in this contest. The link for this contest is right here! You can join if you'd like. Or you can heart my little story on figment that's an entry. That link is over there!

I'm being a bit corny today. There's really nothing to do as I sit in Starbucks waiting for my shift at Subway to start. More on that in my next REALLY long post. Well, I'm going to play some random games now. Bye!

Peace&<3,
Angela
