One Writer's Journey

The Purpose

Filed under: Uncategorized — leahwells @ 7:13 pm

For years I have been writing mini-novels and really long novels. However, I have kept them carefully hidden away from public view. Then three years ago I discovered the world’s largest writing contest. There are no prizes for winning but each November thousands of people from around the world begin a wonderful journey to write 50,000 words in just thirty days.

I have managed to win each year and now I am busy editing three different novels. Working on a couple short stories and getting ready to start NaNoWriMo in November. For anyone interested NaNoWriMo is free and open to anyone. Visit www.NaNoWriMo.com for more info. I am also the co-ML for Las Vegas where we get together for write-in and a 72 hour write a thon. It is a lot of fun.

Now however my goals have changed.  I am no longer writing just to write. My goal is to become published. I am focused on editing and re-writing with the hope others will want to read something I authored.

I plan on keeping everyone updated here on my journey to become published, as well as, the NaNoWriMo saga which is about to begin.

So, come along with me on this journey of literary abandon and see where the path leads.
