National Novel Writing Month

Ok via whoever it was that brought me here will have to take me home (aka Bartspace) I found out about the National Novel Writing Month. Now it seems to be challange for all budding writers to complete a novel in one month. That’s right 50,000 words in 30 days!

Now it seems like Darren is doing it again and I wish him all the best.

I am toying with the idea of doing it myself, which would be amazing to see me motivated to to anything :grin:. I will let you know.

I know an author!

Ok a work friends wife has published her first book, Holycross (search for Holycross). This book outlines the history of the O’Mara family from Tipperary in Ireland. Through civil unrest, murders, trials and then to the Van Dieman’s Land (Tasmania) colony.

Judith did all the research, most of the illustrations, the cover design, layout and got the book self published. I am in awe of the time, effort and quality that Judith has put into this.

I am still reading, so you can expect a full review soon.
