How I did it
It made me
Happy 
How I did it: Found one in Camden Town which I could (barely) afford, and decided not to pass up the opportunity. So I bought it. Seriously, this character minimum thing is silly. Read how I did it…
It made me
Accomplished
How I did it: I didn't really plan, because I'm lazy, but I came up with a vague outline and just went for it. I wasn't actually expecting to finish, given my track record of never finishing anything I set out to do, but I reached 50k before the end of November. I haven't finished the novel yet, but I'm working on it, just more slowly. Read how I did it…

2 to go…
