4 Days and Counting: NaNoWriMo

I have no idea what happened to days 7, 6 & 5. I hope things go better from now to Nov 1st - NaNo Day! I need to adjust to a new schedule and not get behind. It's hard enough to keep up during November, catching up would be horrendous.

8 Days and Counting: NaNoWriMo

One week from tomorrow, I will not be watching a lot of TV. I will have classical music on - no words, just music. I will write for 2 1/2 hours straight. This is a recipe I will repeat for 30 days.

This is one of the pledges to myself that I actually keep every year. Since 2005, I've started 5 manuscripts during NaNoWriMo - National Novel Writing Month. Two of them are completed and published: The Chronicles of Acqueria: Blood Moon Treachery & The Seasons of Sam Rock.

How do I complete them? There are other sites that help after November, like NaNoFiMo - National Novel Finishing Month in December and NaNoEdMo - National Novel Editing Month in March.

The panic is starting. What am I going to write this year? Can I keep it up for 50,000 words? What am I going to forget to do that needs to be done, besides writing?

Guess I better make a list and leave extra lines for all those unforeseen things that are bound to pop up.

10 Days and Counting: NaNoWriMo

Only 10 days to go before the madness starts. I'm just starting to think about my ms, maybe map out a little bit of an outline. That usually lasts about 10 days into the month, then I'm winging it day to day, scene to scene and chapter to chapter.

NaNoWriMo

It's coming! Soon! 50,000 words in 30 days! That's how I spend my Novembers. Since 2005, I have written more than 250,000 words during November. I'll be at it again. It's my favorite place to spend the fall. If you care to join me for the craziness, and to complete at least the beginnings of a rough draft, the site is:

nanowrimo.org

Why not go over and check it out. I'm AnnNoE over there, also, and I'd love some more writing buddies.

Check back for frequent updates during NaNo. I'll post my progress (or lack thereof) here.
