Gearing Up for NaNoWriMo
Wow! Is it really October eighth? In another month we’ll be through the first week of National Novel Writing Month.
I’m attempting to stoke the artistic fire with activities like those mentioned in my previous post. Likewise, I’ve joined a “Walking in this World” workshop. There is a great group of folks delving into this Julia Cameron book together, so I’m excited about everyone’s potential.
Meanwhile, I have no firm idea what I’ll write for NaNoWriMo, but I am writing. A little travel (for pure pleasure – good times!) seemed to boost my moral and give new perspective, kicking off this creativity. In fact, yesterday was the first day I haven’t produced at least a few hundred words of fiction since returning home.
My WIP is actually a rewrite. I felt the finished but un-submitted manuscript deserved a fresh take. Maybe, come November, I’ll just keep going on it and count toward that 50,000 word count goal starting with whatever hits the page on the first.
What about you? I hope you’ll join in the NaNoWriMo challenge.

I haven't quite decided yet, but I think I'm going to work on book 1 of Bloodlines. Or, no, maybe TJ's book if I finish Sealed by Magic this month. We'll see.
I'm so pleased that you're writing again! That's the best news ever.
I know whatever you write will be fantastic. And thanks for the boost! You're such an inspiration.
