Nanowrimo 2010


NanoWriMo Website

I am planning to join this years NanoWrimo. I was planning to participate last year, however, I had surgery in October, and I was not really feeling up to it in November.

This year I will participate and finish. However, I have no idea what I'm going to write about. I don't know what genre I am going to write either. Probably just mainstream fiction, although I really want to try my hand at horror again. I love Stephen King, but I don't think I have his chops.

I will be blogging about it here once it starts on November 1st. I don't know if I will be working by then or not. If not, I will be able to write during the day. If I do get a job by then (I can be hopeful), I will be doing all my writing at night, which will be a first. I used to write at my desk at my last job, and had a lot of sucess. There was not much going on, but a new job, will probably require more of my concentration.

Either way, I will get it done. 50,000 words, here I come.

Same here, still don't really know what to write about, although I have a couple of characters that I can easily write about... all those funny people at the "school" that teaches people to work in an office... :o)
Well, I guess that would be too easy, but I also know that once the excitement of the first day is over (which luckily is a national holiday here), I will have to divide my time between writing and studying for the exams in November - kind of similar to your situation, if - hopefully - you get a new job! :o)
We can once again message each other and cheer each other on (and up) :o)

Hey Babs, well we'll get to it one way or another, hopefully I will finish this year. I am formulating a plan for a story, so it is slowly coming along.
