NaNoWriMo 2011

Next month is National Novel Writing Month. The goal is to write 50,000 words in just 30 days. That's 1,776 words a day, every day, for thirty days straight.

This will be my third year participating in NaNoWriMo. Though I haven't yet won and achieved the 50,000 word goal, NaNoWriMo has helped me get into the practice of writing every day which is an achievement in itself. My goal this year is to (finally) finish the novel I currently have in the works.

In preparation, I blew the dust off of my draft and have started planning so I can pick up where I left off.

Here's a great checklist I found on the blog of S.M. Worth to get yourself ready for NaNoWriMo 2011.
