NaNoWriMo almost Here, and Do I Have a Surprise for You
I never do NaNoWriMo, because I believe if you’re a writer, you should write. Period. One month of excitement is not going to change your life. It’s like one of those one-day self-help seminars. You go; you have an enlightening, emotional experience; you feel good about yourself and your future; and three days later, you’re back to being your old self. NaNoWriMo always seemed to me to be like that. One month of hard-core writing, followed by… what? If you’re a writer, you write, year-round. You don’t cram it all into the month of November. I have held this position for years.
However, I am participating in NaNoWriMo this year. Here’s my NaNoWriMo user page.
Why the change? Actually, no change. It just so happens that I’m almost ready to begin working on Volume 2 of The Conscience of Abe’s Turn: The Birth of the Conscience. This is a sequel to the first book in the series. And I plan to use Agile Storytelling to complete it as quickly as possible. I don’t know whether I’ll finish the whole book before the end of November, but I’m hoping I’ll complete 50,000 words worth (about half the book).
