Camp NaNoWriMo Day 3! Where I Save My Work

Hey again guys! For me it's day three of Camp NaNoWriMo and it has been going very good for me so far. I had about 4000+ words the first day and now day three I'm planning not to spend the WHOLE day writing. I had nothing to do yesterday so I kept writing and writing and writing because I have no friends during the summer. :( Kidding, this camp is obviously more important than my fellow friends.

Here is a picture of me today around early morning time when I just gave out in like the first paragraph of the day. Ain't I attractive here with my little mustache. ----------->>>

Okay so I want to talk about how I save all my chapters and work for NaNoWriMo. It's important to save and back up your work in different places just in case one place doesn't work when you open it. I have all my chapters saved in three places and this is how I use them:

Hey there guys! So today is Camp NaNoWriMo day one, I was up all night on my computer until midnight just to start up camp super early.

I'm really excited about my concept for my story it's called More Than Words, inspired by the track More Than Words by Extreme. All I can you give right now is that it is a fiction YA romance story. I think what I like about my concept is that it's not insta- love it's about these two kids who bond together in their childhood, get separated in their early teens and then fate has its way of making them come back together.

Hey guys! Oh my gosh, it feels like forever since I've written and I am very much alive. I know I haven't been on in a year and let me tell you I have missed everyone and everything in the blogging world.

This past year which is the first school year having this blog has been extremely stressful. I haven't posted at all because I was going through a lot of things in school, dance, and volleyball. It's been a really hard year for me to just push through everything while keeping all my grades and exams in line. During dance I have had very rough times because of my breathing and competition was an awfully busy season during the year.

Everything was very extreme for me this past year but I am coming back into the world I love as a new person and with a better perspective on my writing.
