I was just wondering how many of you will be doing Nanowrimo this year. I have an idea for a crime fiction novel, which I think will be my Nanowrimo title: "Antheratus".
I'm new to Nanowrimo, this is the first year I've ever heard of it and I think that it is a great concept. Making the commitment to yourself to write a full 50,000 word novel in 30 days really lights a fire under you which is exactly what I need.
Anyhow I'm looking for a few writing buddies who plan on doing the event this year so that we can motivate each other towards the finish line. What about the rest of you? Do you have book in mind? Are you in need of motivational writing buddies?
I would love to hear from veteran Nanowrimos as well as newbies like me. Let's make this our best novel writing year!
I'm in! I've never done NaNo before and am very excited about it. I've been kicking around an idea for novel no. 2 but have been so busy with revisions on no. 1 that I haven't gotten no. 2 off the ground. I'm counting on NaNo to help me jump start it. Looking forward to chatting w/ SheWriters about the experience, cheering each other on during the month of November, etc.
Hi. I did it last year, and it's challenging and exhausting, but I found it really "tests your mettle," so to speak. 1700 words a day isn't as hard as it seems, when you have direction and focus. I didn't quite make it (42K and change), but got pretty close. :)
