nanowrimo, national November writing month, write, write a novel in thirty days, writer, writing

It’s that time of year again.  I’m sure that by now you’ve heard, and possibly even participated in Nation Novel Writing Month.

After much debate with myself, I’ve decided to participate in NaNoWriMo.  I was hesitant to do it because I’m in the middle of a few things.  But I’m not going to stop working on my other projects. Which includes:

But there’s another side to the evolutionary coin, and they’re being hunted by it. They must form new alliances and put aside old prejudices as they race against time to save one of their own as he threatens to turn into a murderous subhuman.”

With NaNoWriMo only a couple weeks away, there is a question that keeps popping up:  “Are you a planner, or a pantser?”

Planners

Planners like to outline.  More than like.  They need to outline.  The idea of writing without a game plan is like being dropped into the middle of the ocean with only a pair of water wings.  Sure, you can swim.  But you don’t know where to go.  You might find your way to shore.  Or, you might end up farther out to sea.   Continue reading →
