Nano update

Eleven days into November, and I've only written just over 200 words of my novel, which means I am about ... oooh ... 18 000 words behind schedule.

As usual, I've got a pretty good title, and a really good plot idea, but I just can't seem to make a story out of the idea.

Hopefully I'll be able to put some serious graft in this weekend and catch up a bit with the word count.

Wish me luck!

November 1

Nanowrimo has begun!

Now I just need to write my 1,667 words for the day....

November is National Novel Writing Month. The aim is to write a novel of 50 000 words or more, in one month. I am totally going to go for this! The point is to just write, and not worry about how good or useful or worthy your novel is, but just to put your head down and write. Unfortunately for me, you are not allowed to use previously written material; you have to start from scratch, which sucks a bit, since I have bits of about twenty novels lying around, both in hard copy and on PC.

But I’m going to give it a go anyway.

I hope someone will join me – more info is available here:
