Storyboardishness II: NaNoWriMo

Remember this project I was working on back in May? I was planning out a novel using a storyboard. Not wanting to just let this beautiful planned-out-story sit on my shelf, I've decided to enter NaNoWriMo 2012. It will be my very first year participating.


I've been reading up a lot on what other writers and bloggers think of NaNoWriMo. I've also read lots of tips for first time NaNoWriMo participants (this one in particular was hilarious). Am I ready for 30 days of intense writing in a mad dash to finish a 50,000 word novel? Probably not. But I'm ready to try.

If you're also doing NaNo this year and would like to be my "buddy" you can find me here. Or if you'd just like to sneak a peek at what novel I'll be working on, you can look at my novel page here. Twenty-four days to go!

Are you doing NaNoWriMo this year? Have you done it a previous year? Any tips to help me survive this November?

  1. I'm hoping I can do it this year. I've done it every year for, four years or five. Can't remember. It is fun, just kind of insane at times.

    But I'm going to add you to my buddy list, then follow you through the month. 8-D

    Allons-y!

  2. I'd love to try a NaNo but please tell me - who decided to hold this thing in November? It's hard enough getting ready for the holidays without doing a marathon write-in the whole month leading up to December. I just can't do it.
