I did the same, and even then went back into my sent emails a couple more times to check I hadn't attached the wrong versions. Good luck to all of us who've entered. There can only be one "winner", but the editors can request as many full manuscripts as they want! LOL on opening the attachment three times!

Gah, it was hard to press the send button - I had to reopen the attachment three times in Word to ensure I'd attached the correct draft! But it's done now, so I've let loose a big WHEW, and should move on to other things! (yeah sure) All the best to all, and Sharon, I hope your fingernails grow back before too long!

This has been one of the most challenging yet rewarding experiences of my life. To think that in a week or so's time an editor will have read my script; well it's just beyond belief for me really having never written anything like this before. I doubt I am alone in wondering just how many entries have flooded in this weekend? I can't wait for an update. Good luck to all my fellow entrants. Lets hope the next few weeks fly by.

I usually do it through http://www.nanowrimo.org/ each year. I sign up but don't participate much in the push push of it all. Once I sign up, I make my goal 2.000 words a day or a little more. I actually reach that goal each year. Hopefully this year will follow suite. It's a great way to finish a novel in one month. I love challenges. That's why I enter. it's a huge adrenaline rush. :) Suzanne Hi Amy,
