Things I am NOT Spending Money on in 2023

In particular, I liked watching the lists of all the things they have stopped spending money on and decided to write one for myself. I have a lot of stuff that I have collected over the years. I have downsized and sold some stuff to combat the price of living though.

My plans for this month
Even after Halloween is gone and we head into winter, I am still going to be craving punpkins. November is going to be a busy month for me. As many writers will know, November is national novel writing month and many will be aiming to write 50,000 words by the end of the month. I’ve managed to do it a few times when I’ve took part, but I don’t think I will be taking part of NaNoWriMo this time. However, I still have lots of things to look forward to in the upcoming days. I’ve got my writing meet ups that I can go to. Well, I have to go to the Banbury one because I’m in charge of the money.
