Thinkin’ About: NaNoWriMo (again).
Well, it’s about to be November again, which means it’s about to be National Novel Writing Month again as well. As always, I’ll be joining in the fun. I have two projects that I’m excited about, and I’ll work on … Continue reading
NaNoWriMo 2015: Retrospective
It’s December 1st, which means that NaNoWriMo is over. I’m imagining that a huge sigh of relief is being breathed by writers the world over. As a challenge to write 50,000 words in 30 days, I failed this year’s NaNoWriMo. … Continue reading
NaNoWriMo 2015: Week 3 Progress
I didn’t do any writing on my NaNo novel this week, although I did possibly come up with a plot. Or, as my screenwriting teacher would have called it, the A story line. It doesn’t yet work within the series … Continue reading
NaNoWriMo 2015: Week 2 Progress
Well, there’s no denying that my writing stalled out this week. I had the semblance of a plot, or maybe the illusion of a plot, when what I really needed was a tangible, actual, real plot. What very few words … Continue reading
NaNoWriMo 2015: Week 1 Progress

Thinkin’ About: NaNoWriMo 2015
NaNoWriMo is still a month away. But official emails from the organization are starting to pop up in my inbox, which means it’s on my brain. One of the things that recently got updated on their website is the prep … Continue reading
NaNoWriMo Update
November is half over, and those people who are valiantly keeping up with their word count in NaNoWriMo should be hitting 25,000 words today. That’s 25k words in 15 days. It’s really impressive, is what I’m saying. I’m not making … Continue reading
NaNoWriMo
November is National Novel Writing Month—affectionately called NaNoWriMo—during which literally thousands of people commit to writing, or trying to write, 50,000 words in November’s 30 days. I’ve participated in most of the NaNoWriMos between 2006 and now, but I’ve never … Continue reading
