Nano!!!

omg nano

I am so desperate to do nanowrimo this year. Well, I did it already, of course, back over Easter, if you recall, and I finished the novel in a month, yes, yes, yes. But I so much wanted to do it with the whole world, all together, lathered up into a frenzy. I bought the kit and everything. And I just subscribed in order to get the emails, and have been jealously ogling chatroom arrangements for local meets.

But, argh, I want to finish the thriller! I can't just take a month out!

Grrrgrralkjhhh. This is frustrating!

Next year, I swear, I'm going to clear the decks come November!

Oh, nano. *sighs*

I kind of want to do it properly-ish, and use it to write at least some of the novel I've been thinking about all this time... but then I suddenly thought I'd like to finish the one I started the first time round. I really think finishing that one, even if it's rubbish, would be a good thing for me. But that's definitely not in the spirit of Nano, is it? So maybe I'll do the other one.

Or, I could spend all November angsting about it! :)

Don't do the angsting!!!

Do Nanowrimo! You can always finish that other one later. The mistake I made with my April nano was to use characters and a plot skeleton I already had in my head. I think it's best to follow Chris Baty to the letter: sit down on 1 November and make something up there and then, from scratch. That's what I wanted to test out this November! *boohoo*
