I did it! I finally finished my book, Ghost in The Woods, today. I did have a head start at the beginning of the month, I already had about 16,000 words written but I still wanted to participate in NaNoWriMo so I could try to finish my book.
I am so glad I finished! It was a lot of hard working, brainstorming, and determination. Now I am looking forward to revising and honing my next couple of drafts. YAY!

Last night I had a great time at “An Evening with Neil Gaiman“. Gaiman came to the Eccles Theatre in downtown Salt Lake City and spent a couple hours with a jam-packed crowd answering questions and reading some of his work.
I bought my ticket about a month ago and I was so excited I was able to go see him. Neil Gaiman is one of my favorite authors. He is well-known and critically acclaimed, some of his popular works include Coraline, Good Omens,The Sandman (graphic novels), and American Gods just to name a few.

I arrived at the venue about an hour early and there was already quite a crowd ready and just as excited as I was. I stood in line for about half an hour to buy a couple signed copies of his books, Norse Mythology and Art Matters. I went and took my seat and waited for the show to start.
Gaiman was funny, witty and extremely fascinating. He had the audience laughing most of the time and when he read excerpts from some of his books, his voice was hypnotizing. There were a few questions about his work, a couple really good questions about being a writer as well as the strangest question, “What advice do you have for newlyweds?”.
Overall, it was a great experience and I am glad I had the opportunity to go and see him.
