Writing a Novel

letter-writing.jpg 

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!

I wanted to thank you for linking to Ungrind on your blog! We really appreciate it and hope you’re being encouraged by the articles we publish.
