Get off your arse and do it.

I took part in the NaNoWriMo (National Novel Writing Month) writing initiative back in November last year. The idea is to challenge yourself to get your novel down on, I was going to say paper, but more likely the computer nowadays with the aim of achieving 50,000 words or more. Unfortunately I didn't manage to achieve that the last time that NaNoWriMo happened because my health conditions decided to kick in on overdrive. Rather than getting my novel done via my talk-to-type software I was flat on my back in bed - most likely snoring (yes, women snore too, I admit it - though not me, obviously...)

NaNoWriMo is a fantastic idea because it gives us the kick in the butt that many of us need, but just because it is over it doesn't mean that we should rest on our laurels. I am starting to feel a little better than I have done for the past few months so it's time to get writing again. And I would like to encourage you all to do whatever it is that you have been putting off whether that is writing a novel, getting a new job or dancing naked in the rain...
