Hello Kiwi Writer,
The excitement and enthusiasm in this first week of SoCNoC has been palpable and damn contagious! The passion for stories, for writing, for characters is obvious and it's easy for us to forget it. It's easy to take advantage of this writing high, to take it for granted and forget it so quickly when things start getting harder. If this writing high has eluded you so far, don't fear! Any progress that you're able to make is setting you on the path to great things. Everyone's SoCNoC journey is different, every story is different and every writing is different. That writing high, The Zone, is there for all of us. We're all on our own rides of excitement and you may be in one of those corkscrews that makes your stomach turn, you may be climbing slowly higher and higher before the big exciting descent, or you may be riding the twists and turns with your arms flung above your head. It's all part of the ride but remember that you'll get off at the end, when the car pulls to a stop, flushed and giggling with your head spinning. That's the excitement of it all.
