I must be crazy. I’m doing NaNoWriMo again.
Last year I signed up for NaNoWriMo — that’s the site where you sign up to write a novel in 30 days. I didn’t do too badly. I wrote about 3 chapters worth before life landed on me with both feet. So, what do I do this year? I signed up again. You see, I like deadlines. Seeing a deadline coming up on the horizon tends to focus me quite nicely until it whooshes past my ears with that nice breeze. This year I’m already working on an outline so hopefully but the start of November I’ll now where I’m going with the story. At least, that’s the plan anyway. Last year I think I was just too unfocused on the story. I learned a lot about writing and me last year and I hope that knowledge will help me this year.
If you’re also doing NaNoWriMo this year, let me know. I’d like to hear how this novel in a month works for others.
