The end is in sight. When I started out at the beginning of this month, I wasn't sure if I would be able to make it this year.
I didn't have a well-developed novel idea; I was busy at work and the workload has not decreased in the course of November, rather the reverse; I had plans to go away for a long weekend. Well, the story developed as I wrote it - I found out a lot of things I was completely unaware of, and if I put a lot more work in, it might actually be worth reading some day; I managed to write every day despite the fact that work wipes me out every day, and most of the time I enjoyed writing, too; the long weekend in warm and sunny Portugal was canceled (now that was not necessarily a good thing).
There are moments every November when I hate myself for doing this to myself, but by and large, I love NaNoWriMo.
