NaNoWriMo T-minus 9 days!

We have nine days until the beginning of NaNo and I am frantically running around like a chicken with my head cut off. I have been somewhat successful in planning so far, but I'm afraid that I'm going to run out of time and/or steam. I think I'm focusing too much on the details. As I'm writing out my scene outlines, I'm trying to get out as much detail as possible so 1) I can breeze right through it come November and 2) so I can remember it all.

Hopefully I'll get it all together. I'll be blogging (mostly) everyday again this year. Here's to the first November win in three years! Hopefully.

NaNo plotting

I'm currently at Starbucks with some members of Wicked Wordsmiths of the West plotting our NaNo novels. I think I've got some good ideas and finally a conflict. And a subplot. Progress!

I'm back for reals this time....

So the wedding has been had and I've had some time to decompress from it all. Being married doesn't feel any different than our relationship has been for the past three years. But it is kind of fun to be able to call him my husband. :-P

So NaNoWriMo starts back up in less than a month. I plan on participating and hoping for a win this November. I'll be posting my progress, which will probably be me complaining that I'm behind in word count. But it's okay. I'm hoping to get about 2000 words a day. This is more even than the 1667 they suggest, but I'm hoping to get ahead of myself so when those days do happen where I don't want to do anything *cough my birthday cough*, it won't be so devastating.

I do have a working title for my 2013 NaNo novel, and that's something to be excited about. It's called Behind the Lines. It's YA (of course) and the main character is Mari Breckenridge. I look forward to writing it in November.
