April Camp NaNo complete!

April Camp NaNo 2014 is done. It is the 1st of May today, the first of a lot of things, I think for American's today is the first of spring? If I'm totally wrong then please excuse me, I'm just thinking of the May Dance. Or is that English? Just ignore me here. Moving on.

My goal for this camp, my first ever camp, was to write 20,000 words, and complete two of my stories. One turned out to be a novella instead of a short story and the other is still incomplete. So out of my goals, I hit my word count with a shining 20,008 words, completed my novella, wrote a poem, and also wrote a whole new short story. My play is still incomplete and I will focus on finishing that later sometime. On all, what I managed to do in April, I'm happy with everything.

Camp was an interesting experience, totally unlike November NaNoWriMo in every way and feel. It had a completely different air about it. The air wasn't good, it weighed all of us in my cabin down and out of the twelve I was the only one to hit my goal.

I will not be returning next year, I've decided virtual camping is not for me. My cabin was a big disappointment, I am sorry to say, but that was all due to the fact that people underestimated how busy life is. My fellow campers were all upset about not being able to finish, but it just wasn't possible for them to finish. There is an option to leave your cabin and they will put you in a new one, but just as I decided to leave the chat slightly became active and I felt it rude to leave. And then it stopped being active and by then there was no point leaving because camp was almost at a close.

It may have been a disappointing camp, but I'm still glad I participated in it. It was a new experience and I'm mostly all for new experiences.

I am hoping that I will see my fellow campers this November, of which I will be participating, I have a very interesting story idea in mind that I want to write, unless things change and I can't write it, and I hope that they will all be able to complete their goals.
