Writing a Novel
I am going to attempt to write a 50,000-word novel during the month of November.
That’s right.
It’s part of National Novel Writing Month - or NaNoWriMo for short.
I have to do around 1,700 words per day.
Am I crazy? I think maybe, because I have 16 credits and a babysitting job and one of the busiest semesters ever.
But here I am, trying to write a novel.
I’m going to take it one day at a time. I’ve already got an hour for writing scheduled for later in the day. Hopefully that’ll be enough!
I’ll keep you posted. Blogging might be a little more pithy and succinct this month.
Update: In case you missed it on my “For the Love of Writing” entry, I am no longer able to meet this goal! Read there for a little more info. Thanks for your encouragement!

hey! Nanowrimo. I have participated - once. I didn’t get too far because assignments got in the way - this year it is wedding. Perhaps next year.
Have a blast and persist.
Go for it!
But please; let us know how it is coming, at least once a week!
I have wanted to enter this every year. I may just do it this month… Thank you, sis :o) Lets keep each other updated ?
What a goal! That’s great, Anna!
