NaNoWriMo Starts Today!
National Novel Writing Month!
Two Years Ago I Wrote The Following, Except For A Few Minor Changes:
NaNoWriMo is for me and many mo
50,000-word count in one month
25,000 is the number for midmonth.
It takes dedication to write enough
I think you have to be tough,
it is rough
each day to make it to that goal.
~
I am so close today and my soul
says does it make sense, is it my focal
I decided to write a poem a day only for vocal
I could not write 600 words plus everyday
and hey, I did alright today
and tomorrow I will do okay.
~
Vocal is local
and has many benefits that Vocal!
And I like the Facebook groups
it is more like troups,
that support the writing together
never leaving a man behind, whether
they say something they should not
or write something that is rot
They support each other, alot!
~
My question is will I have a book
when I finish the NaNoWriMo hook?
Some say
nay, nay,
others say, in a month or so you will wish
it will be time to edit and finish.
NaNoWriMo gives dedication to writing every day
If you don't have it already from Vocal today!

My NaNoWriMo adventure starts this Wednesday,
on November first. My writing started some time ago.
Some of you know.
I have been writing shorts on aging.
I think this is a good thing for me to write about as I am sageing
Not sagging, saging, or smudging.
You know a wise one. I am getting older and wiser.
Besides getting older, greyer and smartassier.
Hey that is a great idea for the challenge assier?
Time to work on my project before I become even sassier!

A kenning is a type of metaphorical phrase or compound word used in poetry, especially in Old Norse and Old English literature, which replaces a single, concrete noun. It often contains a significant, indirect or symbolic meaning and helps to create vivid imagery. A kenning can involve multiple words, usually two, connected with a hyphen or written back to back. For example, "whale-road" was a kenning used to mean the sea. Bing
