Congrats to all NaNoWriMo Winners!

To the winners of NaNoWriMo: Congratulations. I mean it. You guys all set the bar for writing quickly. Sure, it might all be horrible, but you did it. Your ideas are out there, and, knowing you, they're ingenious. You all defied the limits. You've just devoted 30 days of your life to pure writing, and more if you've done it before. Given, you'll most likely live about 30000 other days (give or take) in all of your life, and that's only 1/1000 of your life, but let's put it under a different light.
Writing could be seen as simply putting a pen to paper or typing a language onto a screen.
But it's so much more than that. It's a form of art, it's a way to express your opinions, your dreams, your thoughts, your WORLDS that you have created.
NaNo could be seen the same way. 1/1000th of your life, or a novel. You could change the world with that novel. You could be the next JK Rowling, who gets children to read all over the world.
Because of YOUR book.
Or, if your book is more of a thriller, mystery novel, or a suspenseful drama that is meant to scare more than make people happy, you could keep readers up at night, reading into the wee hours of the morning, just to read your awesome masterpiece.
Doesn't that inspire you?
Now it suddenly looks like a whole lot more than just something you wrote in a month. It's a draft, yes, but it's a draft that could turn into something extremely magnificent.

And you have the power to do that.
So go write. Continue to write. Don't procrastinate. Write, revise, and finish. And bask in the glory of your awesome-ness.

And if you didn't finish, who cares? Next year, it'll be yours. The prizing grandeur of the title, "Novelist."
That'll be you.

And if you won, that's you, write (haha) now. Congratulations, writers.



(By Cora, thanks!)
