It’s that time of year again! I can’t believe how
quickly November comes around these days. In a way I’m thankful because
NaNoWriMo and Camp NaNoWrimo seem to be the only times of year that I
actually get much writing done.
This time around I have had some foresight
and have asked for time off work in order to concentrate on my writing.
In previous years I’ve worked throughout the month and have almost
killed myself trying to make the word count. I’ve
gotten sick every year without fail and that has meant I always end up
making a really mad dash for the finish line which is just not fun at
all. Having, said that, I am a bit of a loon and given that I’ve got
time off I’ve decided that instead of just shooting
for the 50k word count I’m going to try and write most of the novel in
November so I’ll aim for 75k instead. I don’t like my chances because I tend to get a bit bored of my worlds
after a big stint of writing so I’m going to have to be very well
prepared so as not to lose steam.
To all those who are thinking of
participating in NaNoWriMo this year: GOOD LUCK! Hit me up on the
website if you’d like some encouragement. My username is write_obsession. I have some blog posts prepared to go live during the
month
so that I don’t get too stressed about keeping up with social media.
Besides that I shall see you all on the flip side. Hopefully with a full
novel under my belt! Oh and in case anyone is wondering, I am writing
book 3 in my Wind Dancer series!
