I had so many plans to offer a course for NaNoWriMo, but life came at me completely sideways this past month and I’m still reeling. Nothing serious, I’m fine, but I’ve never been so busy and exhausted in my life. However, miraculously, I am past the worst of it, and I am now able to start working on my NaNoWriMo Novel. If you’re a writer or interested in writing, and have never participated in NaNoWriMo, I encourage you to check out the website. The site and forums aren’t as good as years past, but it’s one of the best online communities I know, and the whole spirit of NaNoWriMo is wonderful.

I’ll be writing more about what’s been keeping me so busy, and also sharing some resources for teaching writing heading into the holidays, so if you haven’t already, please subscribe! I don’t share your email with anyone, ever, and I don’t spam your inbox. You just get my posts in in your inbox, which is MY favorite type of “newsletter.”

Have a wonderful first day of the month!
