Usually Thursday is news day around here (Well, okay, the one news day we had last week was on Thursday) but that didn’t work out this week. So today is news day, and we’ll be back to regularly scheduled programming around here next week.
If you have big news you’d like to share next Thursday – a published article, finishing a first draft, signing up for a writing class, etc. – please email me at Stephanie(at)GoTeenWriters.com with “News Day” in the subject line. I’m happy to post a link to your blog or a picture of you as well, if you so choose.
This week’s big news:
- Talia DeAndrea finished NaNoWriMo!
- So did Shelby Stoddart, who mentioned her final word count was 50,200. Awesome!
Way to go, guys, (For those who don’t know what NaNoWriMo is, you can find out more at their website.)
There was some chatter on the Go Teen Writers Facebook page about NaNo winners as well, so if you also won NaNo, feel free time chime in below! You can even share what your story is about, if you’d like.
