Yo, yo, yo!
Today is the first day of the dredded/celebrated NaNoWriMo (National Novel Writing Month)! For those of you not in the loop, NaNo is a challenge to write a novel (50,000 words) during the month of November.
"November?!" you say. "Why November? It's, like, a totally busy month!"
That's the point. During the stress of holidays, season changes, family, travel, and stuffing your face with delicious food and treats, you're challenged to write a novel. Even though you have a bajillion other things going on around you, the sense of pride and accomplishment of carving out a little bit of time each day to write 1,666.6666666667 words is well worth it. Even if you don't reach the 50,000 word goal, you've written something and that something will always be better than nothing.
I'm planning on using this month to really buckle down and finish OUTCAST, the second book in the Corporation series. Check out my Facebook page and Twitter feed to check on the progress I'm making. My goal is to share with you each day a little something that I've written; a bit of a sneak peek, if you will.
So, what bout you all? Up for the challenge?
Happy writing, my friends!
