    DAY 26: WAS IT A WASTE OF TIME? NaNoWriMo

    National Novel Writing Month, NaNoWriMo, is a secular event I don’t think of it that way but I should.

    DAY 15- NaNoWriMo Writing what is Truth

    As a non-fiction writer who does not have “formal” training the challenge is to make sure the reader understands the words presented are the beliefs of the writer and make sure what is being written is credible.
