It can be difficult to give up on a project like this but I think it's important to know when you have to quit something. I knew I was losing interest in my project so I made the decision to focus my efforts on other things and not just spend the month forcing myself to write something that I no longer really wanted to write. And I know that was the right decision.
I posted more on this blog in April than I ever have in a single month before, and I've been planning even more posts for the near future. In fact, right now I'm writing this post days before I plan to post it and it's the second post I've written today, which is pretty unusual for me since, embarrassingly, it usually takes me at least two days to write a single post.
I also rediscovered my passion for scriptwriting and the theatre and I've started planning and researching a couple of ideas for plays, which is something I've only thought about doing since I finished university.
So maybe the Camp NaNoWriMo project didn't get anywhere but I'm happy with the things I have achieved this month, including recognising when it was time for me to give up on that project and focus on other things.
