What worked? What didn’t?

NaNoWriMo 2019 ended yesterday. Was it a success? I suppose, like most things in life, it's the perspective with which you look at it, as to the answer to the question. The original goal for NaNoWriMo was to write 50,000 words in the month of November. After the second weekend, I realized I was not …
