It's always been my dream to write a book, ever since I was young and watched Little Women. I thought I could be like Jo March and write about my family. Unfortunately, my family wasn't that interesting, so I wrote about imaginary people and places. My stories were never very good.
Come college, I dreamed of writing a novel - one people would love and pass on to their friends. I started many and finished none. This dream continued until, well, today. I have so many started drafts and nothing finished.
That is, until now. Thanks to NaNoWriMo...I've finally finished my book! It's done! I love it! Sure, it's a rough first draft, but it was written in only 27 days. There are sure to be many mistakes. The point is, I've finally finished something, and I've never been prouder.
What now you ask? I don't know! I'm going to get a few friends to help me edit it. Writers are terrible at editing their own work, so I need outside help. After that, we'll see. But I'm not planning that far ahead. I'm just happy for today.
And who knows - maybe one day a book blog will be reviewing my book?
