Aprils camp NaNoWriMo was my first NaNoWriMo in April and my third time participating in NaNoWriMo. In Julys NaNoWriMo I wrote book one in my book series, in NaNoWriMo in November I wrote book two and in Aprils NaNoWriMo, I tried to write the final book in the series. now I do want to point out the final book in the series is a novella with a total of 45,000 words while the other two are 52,000 and 56,000 words. I knew from the start the final book would be shorter than the other two because this one focuses on Tosha and her becoming a Banshee.

I declared my project on the 11th of January 2020, because I already knew what I wanted to write. I had set my goal at 45,000 words for the 30 days which equals out to 1,500 words each day something I know I could do with my eyes closed, all that was left to do was wait.

in the time I was waiting I just made a list of things that needed to happen to make it fit in with the other two books so that I could just write like I needed to. 

Before long it was April and I kicked it off with 2387 words on the first day, not to bad I will admit but it was a pretty bad attempt especially since the next day I only was able to write 1126 words.

After that, my work went downhill, with day four and seven getting no words but I got a combined total of 2031 words over the other three days which means I completed week one of Camp NaNoWriMo with 5544 words total.

week two wasn't much better with only getting 1,777 words all week and only writing five days and four of those days were only 19 words a day.

between the 15th and 21st I only got 2,468 words and only wrote two days, on the 21st I decided to give up with writing for camp nanowrimo because of how far behind I was and because of bad writer's block getting in the way.
