    Caffeinated Convo: Camp NaNo or Time for a Vaca?

    Hey guys! Guess what time it is? You guessed it–Camp NaNoWriMo! With July 1 just around the corner, it’s time to prep for that once a year writing camping trip a la internet! The only question is: Are you joining me for camp, or is it time for you to take a vacation? If your answer is no, I totally understand!
