NaNoWriMo Begins!

Indeed.

November 1st is the beginning of National Novel Writing Month–a kickoff of worldly, wordy wackiness.

This year, I am working on something a little more wry and philosophical (hopefully humorous and serious at the same time). Tentative title: Reality and Richard’s Curry.

I decided against the young adult novel, as the ideas and characters for “Reality” started flooding in while eating curry one day. Oh, yes.

Stay tuned! I have to produce about 1600 words per day, in order to stay on top of the 50,000 words in 30 days challenge. Last year, I made it through, and on days where I skipped writing, I made up the difference the following days by pumping out 3000+ words. Whew.

This year, I have the added challenge of being self-employed, teaching, AND being a student, all in one, while trying to pump out work. I think I can’t even spell the word “anuerism” today.

If you’re also participating in NaNoWriMo, please become a writing buddy, by going to my profile while you’re logged in to your own account. I’d love to keep track of what other people are doing. http://www.nanowrimo.org/eng/user/214840
