I was over 300 days. I was participating in NaNoWriMo and I was on task with my word count to hit 50K by November 30. That ended on Saturday, November 10. Because that’s the day my Daddy died. He was 70. I’m 43. And now… now I have to try to write, because, how else am I going to face this day?

It finally happened. I missed October 29th. My first absent day since July 2012.

So I’ve picked myself up, and started again. Because this is a habit now, part of the rhythm of my life, and I am happy about that. Sure, I liked seeing the numbers go up. But I’m also happy to know that I didn’t actually need the numbers to go up.

Just went past 4 million words tonight. I’m totally awestruck. It’s not publishable for sure, but it’s my life I’m writing—and it’s been a great joy to do it. I know that I would never have been able to write so consistently except for 750 Words. Thank you again and again, Buster and Kellianne—and all the rest of you in the sweet writing community on this site. Peace and blessings to you all.
