Each year

for thirteen years

in November,

worlds I’ve created—

inner editor silenced—

words flowing, balanced

in characters on a quest,

fairies and dragons

in the woods and meadows,

where shadows and evil

stalk and obstruct,

until finally the light

of heroes together

overcome and build

a better world

in fifty thousand words.

The author reflects on their experience of successfully completing National Novel Writing Month (NaNoWriMo) for the thirteenth time, where they wrote 50,000 words in thirty days. By silencing their "inner editor" and allowing their imagination to freely pour onto the page, the author crafted a novel with a unique story and characters. Additionally, they share an excerpt from their novel, which hints at a magical world with familial conflict and mysterious objectives involving a lantern sculpture.
