YAY!!! Happy dance time. I got my 30 ideas and 30 days and therefore I'm happy to announce that I'm a PiBoIdMo winner again this year :D

I'm really excited about some of the ideas on my list too. Some of which have been put on my publication list for 2015 so keep your eyes open for updates on those in the near future ;)
Unfortunately due to personal problems and a variety of viruses and other seasonal joys (both my kids decided to bring home every cold, cough, stomach bug.... that was on offer this year and generously shared them with us all), I didn't manage to be a WNFIN winner too. I had hoped I'd get the book finished by the end of November but life just got in the way. I am however closer to finishing it than I was at the beginning of the month and so I still class that as a mini victory even if I didn't meet my goal. How to be Pinterest Perfect will be finished soon though and is scheduled for release early in the new year.
Did you meet your writing goals for November?
As I mentioned in an earlier post this month, I'm taking part in the WNFIN challenge (Write Non Fiction in November) this month. My goal is to finish the first draft of the second book in the Writers and Authors Guide to Social Media Series. I have to be honest with you, so far things are going pretty slowly. I've worked out the table of contents and been doing some extra research to make sure I have all the most up to date statistics, facts, measurements, etc... Unfortunately I haven't had much time to work on the actual writing of the book though. In true November fashion, our house has exploded with colds, and other viruses. The kids, hubby, and I have all been hit and so energy levels are running pretty low.
I am still hopeful about meeting my goal though. Like I said, the research part is done. The table of contents is done. That's a good point to be as I now know what to write and in what order it should go ;)
Do you have a Pinterest tip to share? Post it in the comments below, along with your full name, and I might just quote you in the book ;)
Are you doing WNFIN this month? How's it going so far?

This month I'm participating in two creative challenges. The first is PiBoIdMo (Picture Book Idea Month) where the goal is to come up with 30 ideas for picture books in 30 days. I love this challenge and have been a winner for the past two years in a row.
The other challenge I'm participating in is WNFIN (Non Fiction Writing in November), where my goal is to finished the first draft of my non fiction book How to be Pinterest Perfect (the 2rd book in the Writers and Authors Guide to Social Media Series).
Are you doing any creative challenges this month?
