“A, B, C or D? Really?!?”
Our frenzied novel writing was repeatedly interrupted on November 30 as students let out yelps of joy when they met their word count goals. Even I disturbed the quiet when I took a writing break, loaded my novel into the NaNoWriMo word validator, and saw “WINNER!” flash across my screen.
“I made it!” I yelled, jumping out of my chair and bowing to my students as they applauded my success. Whew.
