| Blogging in November |
 by Fëanor |
Just wanted to let everybody know, I'm participating in National Novel Writing Month in November, which means I'm going to write a 50,000 word novel between November 1st and November 30th. There's no way I'll be able to keep up all my regular blogging on top of all the other writing and work I'll have to do, so I'm afraid you can expect little from me here for the next 30 days besides NaNoWriMo updates and maybe the occasional Hulk Thought.
If you're taking part in NaNoWriMo as well and would like to be my buddy, my username is Feanor1138.
I have to say, although I'm a little scared, I'm also really excited. It's been a long time since I took on a long prose project like this, and I forgot how thrilling it could be. Two things I'm really worried about: being struck by writer's block halfway through, and not being able to keep myself from getting mired down in lots of editing and rewriting. I'm used to starting each new writing session by rereading what I wrote last time and tweaking it, but there's no way I'll be able to do that and still keep up the necessary pace of about 2,000 words a day. I need to force myself to just get it down and move on!
Anyway, it should be interesting! I might stay up until after midnight tonight so I can get started as early as possible. |
