So it’s November, and we all know what THAT means, don’t we? No? Oh. Well, It’s NaNoWriMo. What is that, you may ask. NaNo is where crazy people like me attempt to write 50,000 words in a month.
I tried it properly last year and wrists about 15,000. Not a “win”, but it was about 14,950 more than I has written in the three years previously! Plus, it has become the start of the first thing I can seriously see becoming a finished book.
So this NaNo I am going to try to write flat out and finish it. Or at least break the 60,000 mark.
Follow me on twitter and I’ll (maybe) share my word count with you. Keep pestering me here and I (might) let you read some of it.
Wish me luck!

I admire you SO much for even trying. I’ve thought about doing NaNoWriMo once or twice, but it’s such a massive goal when you’re trying to squeeze it around a full time job (not to mention the holiday madness). I’m not even sure I could do it if that was my only work for the month. Although I suppose if I just wrote and didn’t hyper-analyze every word I might have a better chance of succeeding. :-}
I’m going to be honest with you – I highly doubt I will finish, even with the head start from last year! But it’s something to aim towards and is getting me back to proper writing, so that’s a win already 🙂
