Checked this out from the library yesterday and finished it today. It helped me realize it was time to drop out of NaNoWriMo and focus on writing in a way that works for me. Looking forward to that!

tpixie That‘s amazing to find out!! I remember when I was in school I was great at studying and then I switched schools and somehow lost confidence in myself so then started trying to do everybody else‘s study habits and then finally realized I need to stick with my own study habits. Good luck 🍀 3y

What a topical book to happen upon! Happy #NaNoWriMo everyone!! I'm being a little rebellious this year and working on my novel from last year. It was kind of a mess but I loved the idea (ufos + feminism), so hopefully this book can help me get my act together!

This is my 6th national novel writing month. Are you writing this month?? My username is ulianne if you want a writing buddy 💕💕

TK-421 This will be my third Nano. I thought about being a rebel & continuing with the revision project I started during Camp Nanowrimo, but decided I'd rather tackle a new writing project. Good luck and Happy #Nanowrimo! 8y
