This November I participated in the NaNoWriMo challenge to write 50,000 words of a novel in the course of the month, and I succeeded - and ended up with a completed (if rough) first draft of a novel! In this video, I get into what my writing stats for the month were and my five main takeaways: the one significant mistake I made, and the four strategies that were most helpful for writing this much in a single month.
