My Dumbest Idea Ever

This is probably the dumbest idea I've ever had, and I'll probably remove this post tomorrow.

Several years ago, I tried NaNoWriMo--that's National Novel Writing Month--for the first time, where you try to write 50,000 words in a month (specifically, November). That first effort was terrible, and doesn't exist anymore, I'm rewriting it into my first attempt at getting a published novel, it doesn't matter. My second attempt, after successfully undergoing chemotherapy, I recently found hidden on my computer. I reread it, and . . . it's bad. It's got a few good bits here or there, but wow. It's . . . well, it's a first draft, and an incomplete one at that. Around 30% of the completed whole. I also found last year's attempt, and it's not so good, neither. Also, not completed, but closer to halfway done.

So . . . none of that was the dumb idea. HERE'S the dumb idea.

Yep, links to each chapter of my last two NaNoWriMo efforts. Debonair, clocks in at 10 complete chapters and an eleventh half-finished chapter, at ~87,500.

And Rocket Boost is 13 complete chapters and a fourteenth just begun chapter, at ~50,250 words (and contains spoilers for Debonair).

Two things to consider if you bother with checking them out: 1) You cannot rewrite during NaNoWriMo, so there are TYPOS. Typos, typos, typos. I think in a couple places, I shift tenses, too, with no warning, and even rename characters having forgotten what I had originally named them extemporaneously. 2) These are REALLY rough, and incomplete first drafts. If I were to rewrite them, I would change A LOT--including pacing issues, timeline issues, characterization, names, places, possibly everything. So, if you think they suck, you are 100% correct. They do.

Which is why it's a dumb idea. Maybe if I'd actually completed the first draft of EITHER story, this would be less of a dumb idea.
