The Fail
So ... NaNoWriMo didn't happen. I didn't get further than a partial plot! I was pretty bummed about this, but there is a reason for it ...
The Win
I started receiving loads of Morgan Media work at the beginning of November. This stressed me out at first because I kept feeling guilty about not writing. I mean, it was NOVEMBER! The month in which I was supposed to write a whole NEW BOOK! But about halfway through the month I told myself to get over it and just enjoy doing the other work without feeling guilty. I probably needed a break from writing anyway!
Here's the number of projects I received in November:
Ebook interior formatting: 10
Print interior formatting: 5
Completed book covers: 15
Book covers still in progress: 5
Social Media graphics: 3
Bookmarks: 32
Animated web bookmarks: 1
Here's a sample of what I did!

How did your November go?
Did you complete NaNoWriMo if you were a participant?

Hey, that's pretty amazing! You did a lot of work in November.
ReplyDeleteWow!
ReplyDeleteI'm no fan of formatting, and I guess I'm not the only one that feels that way about it.
I hope it's rewarding for you!
Gotta agree with Alex. That's a lot of ground covered. You can get some writing done this month to catch up. :)
ReplyDeleteLife happens while we're making other plans. It's not like you were sitting around doing nothing. What a lot you accomplished this month!
ReplyDeleteWell, you need to get your side business off the ground, so a new novel will just have to wait. Glad to see it's taking off! :D
ReplyDeleteI'd say it was a good fail! You made money and did some great work! You can always try again next year. :)
ReplyDeleteOh wow I'm thrilled that you're getting so much work!
ReplyDeleteI finally won NaNo, which I'm stoked about. :-D
Wow Rachel, - your "fail" is better than my win, so congrats on getting a *LOT* done :)
ReplyDeletePS: Thanks for your help supporting the 50 States of Pray event - really appreciate it :)
Great to hear that Morgan Media is doing really well. Congrats!
ReplyDeleteI hope you find time for writing soon though, as (being very selfish here) I'm looking forward to reading more of your work! :-)
That win is definitely a big one! Congrats! And writing will come too. :)
ReplyDeleteCongrats on all the business you've gotten. Didn't finish Nano either but I don't feel like a failure at all. I started something and have no regrets.
ReplyDeleteThat's alright:) I ended up in pretty much the same boat for Nano WriMo myself...at least we tried:)
ReplyDeleteThat's not a fail. You had a pretty big win. Though you still had to find the time to write the new novel :-(
