How I did it: I joined the NaNo project (National Novel Writing Month.org) and plugged along writing the first draft of a new novel. I didn't keep up with the required daily word counts,but I did keep with the deadline of the end of the month. I am planning on creating a modified structure for myself in order to complete the 1st rewite before the summer. Read how I did it…
How I did it: I really unschooled vs home schooled my youngest child -- it was easy - he is very self-motivated and loves to learn all sorts of things.

officially I now write and edit for a living! and do so to support my recently graduated 17 yr old daughter and my unschooled 5 yr old son—it was very scary to leave the annoying day job which was a guaranteed paycheck, but I couldn’t devote the time & energy to getting paying freelance gigs if i stayed with it.
it was all good & did good & was what it what
and it’s been over
is wonderful and I am happy it will be part of my regular routine in 2008
