It is that time of year again...thirty day, 50,000 words...it is just way too exciting! That's right, November is National Novel Writing Month or NaNoWriMo and I am totally psyched to get started!!!
I'm not as prepared as I was last year but more prepared than I was the year before. Does that make sense?? So my plan is to bang out a brief outline of what I want to write about and sort of ease in to it this coming week and then next weekend, when I am at my writing retreat, to just right like a fiend. Again, so EXCITING!!
The website is up and running, although it is still flipping out with the amount of traffic it is seeing. I am hoping they get all the bugs out by Tuesday because it's quite annoying when you can't get on the site to do what you want to do.
My work is untitled, my characters are sketchy at best but I am just so looking forward to just having a goal like this that I just can't even describe it! You know, it's kind of stupid that I wait for November to do this because really, I can do it on my own at any time - you know, give myself the same goal and then do it but there is something about going to that darn website and getting caught up in all of the frenzy that motivates me. Crazy, right?
Either way, if you don't see me around here much in November, it's is because I am using all of my words and typing skills to get to the 50,000 word finish line. Woo-hoo!!

Dare I say I'm going to participate this year. I have not succeeded yet! Aargh... sigh... My heart patters just thinking about it. Good luck, you'll do even better than you did last year 'cause you rock!
Good luck! I admire anyone who can complete this project.
