I don't think I could have done it without participating in NaNoWriMo. Knowing that I had to reach a specific word count by a certain date gave me the incentive I needed. I had written stuff before but often gave up before I had anything real. This experience has shown me that I can do it. Now to keep the momentum going! :-)
