Tomorrow starts July's session of Camp NaNoWriMo! I wish I could join, but I have three projects I'm trying to wrap up. I'll get there, just need to sit down and work on them.
If you feel like donating, NaNoWriMo has a number of different programs, including the Young Writers Program, a Come-Write-In program, Camp NaNoWriMo, and of course, NaNoWriMo itself. You can learn about the programs HERE! They also have some neat gear HERE. To all you camp writers, I wish you all a good luck, and I hope you have fun writing! -Jeff

Well, I've officially fallen behind. I'm currently at 6480 words out of the 13328 that I should be at if I were on track... It's okay though! I'm positive I can catch back up. I've just had a horrible time with some bad back pain lately. =(
Story Details: (See Stats of my progress HERE: The racers are lining up for the first maneuverability challenge, and the main character, Katt, has a cat fight with the third place league'r Patty, who happens to have the worst nickname ever (her real name is Pat.) Fundraiser stats: $26 out of $100 - I'm giving away an electronic copy of my novel to all who donate. Just follow the directions in the thank you email and I'll send it once it's ready for distribution! Until next time, -Jeff
Phew! I finished day 3, and I'm still a little ahead! I'm currently at 5105 words, which is about 10% of my novel.
Today, I had some major back pain, and a little 3 year old pain to boot! (My daughter had a couple meltdowns today), Both of which detracted me from writing. Finally, I just said "I'm doing this." and sat down and dumped my words into my story. Story Details: (See Stats of my progress HERE) We learned more about Katt today, as she showed us her business skills. She about to dominate a race (in tomorrow's words, at least), so I'm looking forward to writing that. Also, Terence, our newest Pirate Drone League'er got some royalties for his race. He's happy for that, and decided not to quit the League after figuring out the queen probably just murdered someone. Technically speaking, she did give the guy she killed time to get away from the ensuing explosion, so it's not her fault he's a dumbass! Fundraiser stats: $26 out of $100 - No new donations today... =( (I'm sad) Hopefully I can keep up this pace, since it's rather fun! Until tomorrow, -Jeff Well, day 2 came and is almost over! Had kind of a long day with a lot of back pain, and my 3 year old daughter wanting to play pretty hard. Luckily, I made my word count, ending the day at 3418 words - which means I wrote 1692 words today!
Woohoo Day 2! (See the rhyme there?) Story Details: (See Stats of my progress HERE) The Queen was spotted, though she wore a helmet so her identity is still a mystery. The main character, Miss Katherine "Katt" Penrey, was also seen, though she didn't come out as bitchy as I had hoped. I might need to give her a few whacks from the bitch-stick. (Copyrighted as of right now!) Fundraiser stats: $26 out of $100 - I had a new donation today! Thanks to whomever did it! ** Also, I did mention I'm giving away an electronic copy of my novel to all who donate, right? Just follow the directions in the thank you email and I'll send it once it's ready for distribution! Also, for you writers out there, This link has some fun little writing prompts! (365 of them to be exact!) Until tomorrow, -Jeff
Hello again everyone! I know it's been awhile, but I was busy finishing off my degree, and family and such - but I'm back, and I'm planning a novel for Camp NaNoWriMo! It's going to be about Drone Racing, (Not these specific drones, but set sometime in the future when Drone racing is bigger than NASCAR!)
Camp NaNoWriMo lasts the entire month of April, so I have 30 days to write 50000 words. I've done it before, it's rough, but I'm going to do it again! So, I mentioned I'm doing a fundraiser. Yep, it's true! I'm doing this because I think the people over there do a great job, and they have programs for kids! I have kids, so I know how important it is to have reading and writing programs for them. Here's the place where you can help me fund raise: http://www.classy.org/JeffreyAlanHenning There's also a special goodie in the email you'll receive after you donate... a free e-book of my Camp NaNoWriMo novel of "Title yet to be determined". (Catchy, right?) More updates as April approaches! Until then, fly straight my friends! (See what I did there?) -Jeff Well, I did not win NaNoWriMo. If I would have I would have 50,000 words. I am at 28069 words.
You know what? It's okay! I'm not disappointed at all, I had a rough month and still came out with over half a novel! Plus, I even have a nifty looking cover! Hopefully, I can finish this baby off and get it out there for everyone to read! Until then, or the next time I post - adventure safely! -Jeff  In case you missed it, it's double donation day over at NaNoWrimo! If you're feeling generous, drop 'em an amount of your choosing, and you'll get double the reward level, so if you donate $25, you'll get the $50 rewards! Click on the banner above to learn more!
