Short and sweet. I wrote 1,176 words today on my new novel over at NaNoWriMo. I worked a long day today at the day job and still I came home to write all those words. Maybe you’ll want to join me in pursuing victory whatever that looks like to you. Maybe it’s writing as many words as you can in a day or maybe it’s getting to the gym. I encourage you to keep your own personal VICTORY JOURNAL this month. Keep it in a real notebook or journal so that when you have a tough day you can go back and easily see those victory pages mounting up just like my word count. Come on, you can do it!

I’ve heard some of the experts say it takes 3-4 weeks to develop a new habit. Well I’m going to try and get back in my old habit of writing every day and I can’t think of a better time to do it than during National Novel Writing Month. What kind of victory are you aiming for this month?
