November started with signing up for writing
challenges. I signed up NaNoWriMo, which was the National Novel Writing Month,
and NoMo. I failed NaNoWriMo miserably, but I don’t regret that. I tried
writing initially, but with guests, festivals, work schedule, it took a toll
and I couldn’t even go half way through it, which isn’t that bad I suppose.
NoMo, I tried writing every single day of the month, I missed a few days in
between, but that’s totally alright I guess.
It was a month full of festivity and joy. Spending
time with family, visiting my parents, and then travelling for a wedding. It
was a pandemonium state, but full of fun! I met my sister as well.
I came to know about a secret admirer of my blog.tim
Doesn’t that give a beautiful feeling inside which is totally inexplicable? I
never thought someone could secretly like my blog!
I received a wonderful gift from my Secret Santa,
and it was bliss to welcome something from someone you don’t even know. I don’t
know my Santa yet, and I am really looking forward to get to know about
him/her.
It was a month of a few firsts too. For example-
- My story made it to the final publishing list in one of the anthologies.
- So were the poems. The books should get printed by January
- First TangyTuesday pick by Blogadda.
I know it’s very small, but when it’s the first
time, it really means a lot (it means at all the other times as well :P)
Saw Tamasha, and I liked it. Yes. It wasn’t everyone’s
cup tea, but very nicely done movie. If you ever take life lessons from movie
(when you feel it is right), you can surely get some light there.
That pretty much sums up my November. What did you
do last month? Any thoughts you mind sharing?
Happy Reading
Cheers

Here, it's been only rains throughout Nov. But had a good time without power, and hence without gadgets, for two full days. That helps one to recharge :)
ReplyDeleteDestination Infinity
It rained here as well and it was bad..!! And getting a break from gadgets is rejuvenating sometimes.. Glad that you're recharged now!
DeleteThanks for dropping by :)
Cheers
